Your mail is no longer being stored in a mail spool like
/var/mail/<username>, so pine can't access it directly via the
filesystem. Now that you are using Cyrus IMAPD, the only way to retrieve
your mail is via IMAP or POP3, so you must configure your mail client to
do so (refer to the pine documentation for instructions).

Note that pine may have locally stored messages in ~/mail and/or ~/mbox
until this point. If you are using IMAP and want these messages to be
available to your other clients, you will need to use pine to copy them
into your cyrus mail store.
