Here is a concise follow-up (in English) that you can post to your forum 
thread, summarizing your latest findings and technical observations:

After further testing, the situation has become even stranger:

1. I restored the old backend (oldbackend, version 3.0.8-6) alongside backend1 
(version 3.10.2-1), with both frontend and cyrmaster still running version 
3.10.2-1. 
   - Mail clients have full access to data stored on oldbackend through the new 
frontend—everything works as expected. 
   - However, accounts managed by backend1 continue to show the previously 
described errors (e.g., frontend console commands for mailbox management 
returning "Mailbox does not exist" etc.).

2. Intriguingly, when configuring my mail client to connect directly to 
backend1 (bypassing the Murder frontend), all account operations work 
flawlessly—including folder creation and message movement.

3. During investigation, I observed a structural difference in mailbox storage 
between the two backends:
   - backend1 (3.10.2-1) uses a new-style folder layout under 
`/var/spool/cyrus/mail/uuid/...` with "uniqueid" attributes for every folder in 
the `ctl_mboxlist -d` output.
   - oldbackend (3.0.8-6) uses traditional directory names 
(`/var/spool/cyrus/mail/[a-z]/user/...`) with no "uniqueid" attributes.

4. Notably, even though both frontend and cyrmaster are running the same 
3.10.2-1 version as backend1, the "uniqueid" attributes present in backend1's 
`ctl_mboxlist -d` output do not appear when dumping the mailbox list on the 
frontend or the master.

Hypothesis:
It appears that the missing "uniqueid" data on the frontend and cyrmaster may 
be causing the Murder frontend to malfunction when handling mailboxes managed 
by the new backend. Curiously, connecting through the frontend to the old 
backend (using the legacy folder format and no "uniqueid") works perfectly—even 
with the new frontend and master versions. This suggests a possible issue with 
how "uniqueid" metadata is propagated or handled in this Murder deployment, 
despite all key servers being on the same software version.

Any insight into how "uniqueid" handling might affect mailbox proxying or 
management in this context, or whether there are additional steps to 
synchronize or migrate this metadata properly, would be greatly appreciated.
