Hi,
On the system I work, it is being considered to backup mailbox instead of destroying them when a user is deleted from the system. The idea is that instead of deleting the mailbox, it would be moved somewhere else, possible to be restored. I know I could just dump the mailbox somewhere and delete it within Cyrus, but I would prefer to do this within IMAP.
When logged on as an admin, here is what I get when trying to RENAME a top-level mailbox to a special backup mailbox :
* OK mail Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.13 server ready . login admin ***** . OK User logged in . rename user.gwb user.backup.gwb . NO Operation is not supported on mailbox
admin have ACL lrswipcda on both user.gwb and user.backup. If this is of any importance, this is being done in a Murder.
What does the "Operation is not supported on mailbox" mean ? Is there any other way to achieve the same result ?
Thanks for your insight !
Cyrus 2.1.x does not support renaming user.xxx mailboxes. I don't know if Cyrus 2.2.x does or not.
Cyrus 2.2 does, if you enable the allowusermoves option.
