That depends on how your postfix/dovecot installation is set up.
If they're using plain old POP3 authentication and are capable of using
MD5 hashed passwords there shouldn't be a problem in re-using them.

OTOH you could leave your clear text enabled recompiled vpopmail
running and it should learn the clear text passwords as the users log
in next time to get their mail.

No!

Passwords are encrypted by a 1-way method...

Too bad...

 Hi,
  
 I have vopmail/qmail on a server and it shows passwords encrypted in
 vpasswd files. I would like to see the passwords, if I recompile
 vpopmail(and upgrade too) with the clear password option, will I be
 able to see the passwords that are previously encrypted.
  
 Thank you.
