Hello Voytek,
I have already used rsync succesfully to move users and their mails.
I still use rsync to make periodic and automated backups of their e-mails.
Maildir here too. You might want to fine-tune it to avoid copying
temporary files and locks cause they disappear quick and make rsync
complain it couldn't transfer all the files because they disappeared in
the meantime.
