Hi Steven, I am not really sure, so maybe someone else can speak to this. The mailboxes file in 1.x is is just a text file, so you can edit it manually. I would have to look in the reconstruct code to see if there is anything there to recreate the mailboxes file (I don't think there is) If you want to have it match the existing directory structure, you could probably write a perl or shell script that would recursively scan the directories and place entries in the mailboxes file for each directory with some assumed permisions. Since the mailboxes file is "The" database for cyrus mailboxes, I don't know if you can really generate a fresh copy without making a lot of assumptions.
I assigned someone here the task of putting together some scripts to verify the mailboxes file versus the /var/spool/imap directory structure vs the seen, subscription and quota files so that I could spot any discrepancies, if we ever get it working, I will send it to the list. Anyone else have a better answer? Thanks, John "Steven J.
