If enabled, a special comparator will be used which will correctly sort \
mailbox names that contain characters such as ' ' and '-'.
Note that this option SHOULD NOT be changed on a live system. The \
mailboxes database should be
dumped before the option is changed, removed, and then undumped after \
changing the option.
I suspect you'll be wanting to dump the mailboxes.db, turn that on,
restore the mailboxes.db, and continue. This is the biggest nasty
suckage with current Cyrus. I wish we'd handled the transition
somehow better. I'm seriously considering a special key in
the mailboxes.db which says if this has been done, and magic in
ctl_cyrusdb -r that looks for the special key and fixes it up if
this isn't the case - then forces it to be turned on. Would have
to be done with quotas and subscriptions as well, but man would it
be worth it.
