A quick note to tie up.

I've gotten a long way towards what I wanted; we'll see how it actually
behaves in practice. To summarize, I needed to make both imap-uw and
cclient with -DWITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT, and for both ports I had to patch
the source to use an alternate mailboxdir  as outlined in the CONFIG 
file in the docs directory of the source tree. After adding my original
mailboxes to ~/.mailboxlist the web app is opening where I want and with
what I want.

These are relevant:

Thanks for this and other suggestions, although it wasn't quite what I
was asking for. I got the cyrus imapd set up with my local account, but
now see (unless I'm mistaken) that I can't easily use my existing 'unix
mailboxes' in this situation. Whereas UW imap will allow me to continue
with same mailbox format, so hopefully I can do so without too much
hassle,
