Hello folks:
I did something stupid. I am runing Cyrus Imap 2.2.0 Alpha.
One day I decided it was time to remove a mailbox because a user wanted a different email name.
So I delete the name and password information from the sasl2 database
and then when into the /var/spool/imap/user and deleted the users
directory.
All admin shouldbe done via the IMAP protocol (eg, cyradm). Never remove files/directories by hand unless it is *absolutely* necessary.
Now when I telnet to my imap port and log in as the administrator and
try to do a " . delete user.mailboxname " I get an error:
. NO System I/O Error
When people send email to this user now, Postfix just fallsback to delivering
it to Cyrus where it goes into a black hole. Problem is that the sender
doesn't get a bounce email back.
So anybody know how I can go about getting Cyrus to forget about that mailboxname?
Recreate the directory for the mailbox, and then retry the DELETE. You *may* have to run reconstruct on the mailbox first.
