Look into using rsync to transfer the files/folder structure from one machine to the other.
Right.
I've already tried copying some folders "behind Cyrus' back". I must've not been doing the right 'reconstruction' afterwards, because Cyrus didn't recognize the added folders.
So if I'm to go down the road of copying the contents "outside" of IMAP, what would be the procedure to get Cyrus to accept everything afterwards?
Well, I recommend John Goerzen's offlineimap which can copy from
imap-to-imap as of 4.0. I've not used that capability myself but it
shouldn't be a problem. Alternatively, have you considered asking the
Cyrus folks what to do? I'd bet they've been asked before and have an
answer. ;-)
