I had a similar problem, and wrote a python utility that does that.
The tool is multithreaded, and takes a cvs file with email and maildir 
columns as input, and copies mail to cyrus, keeping flags and directory
structure.
Note that it is append only, it will never delete from cyrus, but it is
idempotent, so the same mail is only migrated once, even if the utility
us run severeal times.
Available from
"http://limacute.projects.linpro.no/browser/trunk/tools/courier2kolab.py".
Notice that the cvs file must have labels:
#### Example cvs file
email,maildir
"john at doe.com","/path/to/courier/style/Maildir"
####

The utility uses the cyrus admin account do login as each user.
