FWIW, I noticed most of our servers never added a uuid storage directory 
when they updated last weekend. Is there a setting I need to add in 
imapd.conf to enable uuid storage and use relocate_by_id to move 
mailboxes to it?

We have one server with several BIG mailboxes (email going back almost 
25 years) that I am holding off updating until I know relocate_by_id 
works in case the upgrade process goes awry.

Also, I continued to manually move move more mailboxes on the updated 
servers this past weekend and it went well, slowly but well. ;-) The 
only bug is some mail clients saw some of the emails as new instead of 
already read. But that was a minor complaint.
