Do you want to do an “in place” migration or do you have a new machine for sles 12?
I think the direct upgrade from 10 to 12 is not officially supported …

Can you elaborate on this? What do you mean exactly and what does sles 12 not support anymore?

You can stick with Cyrus IMAPd and install it from OBS.
There ist a howto from Dovecot for migration. What does the SUSE support say?
To migrate mails via IMAP between 2 servers use imapsync.

Correct, migration to SLES12 is onyl supported from SLES11 SP3 or SP4 -
see https://www.suse.com/releasenotes/x86_64/SUSE-SLES/12/#fate-313189

See section 7.4.2 of the Deployment Guide for migration from SLES11 SP3
to SLES12 -

It is not easy to understand what you mean. What is your native language?
Can you find someone to translate your problem to English for you?

No, see my answer above!

I cannot understand what you mean, sorry.
