Hi,
i'm running cyrus-imapd 2.2.12 on a fedora (on a open-xchange) and I had a
server failure for a disk full a few days ago.
I have 6 mailboxes running on this server, and 2 of them (the bigger and more
frequently used) went lightly corrupted after that. The other 4 are running
well. The all open-xchange was running well from almost two years now.
All the mailboxes are receiving and sending mail, but the problem on 2 of them
is that it's no more possible to flag a message as seen. Every time the mail
interface refresh (with every imap client I know) all the messages are flagged
as unseen.
The logs of one of the mailboxes under lib/imap/log says
* OK (seen state failure) Unable to preserve \Seen state: System I/O error
I've tryed several times to stop imap and do a reconstruct, but no way.
reconstruct -m (found in a FAQ) doesn't work as the answer is
reconstructing mailboxes.db currently not supported
I couldn't find this error on the cyrus site.
Any ideas?
Figure out whose seen file is corrupted and delete it. Cyrus will
automatically recreate it. It is also possible to fix a corrupted seen
file (more or less) using a python script called skiplist.py. You can
find it with a google search or a search of the list archives.
