Re: Mailbox administration in cyrus

[Dr. Peer-Joachim Koch]

Hi,

I have admin (cyrus) rights on the mailbox.

The solution in this case is a

    dm user.USERNAME.*

this seems to remove everything from user USERNAME without the risk
deleting some similar named user  (...USERNAME* can cause some trouble).

Thanks, Peer

Hi,

is there an esay way to remove ALL mailboxes of an user ?

I did not find any info about something like

    dm -r user.OLDUSER

in cyradm

dm user.OLDUSER



which version of cyrus are you using?

should delete the user (all mailboxes and sievscripts), at least since cyrus 2.3

we are using cyrus 2.4.18 (SLES 12 SP2)

removing every folder within OLDUSER and OLDUSER as well.

No, not at our system. I did




exist (in cyrus and on the filesystem).

No idea, what happens if I use a wildcard ...

dm user.TESTUSER # all users have SPAM,Sent,Drafts as default mailboxes After this command, the mailbox TESTUSER was removed, but user.TESTUSER.{SPAM,Sent,Drafts}

Might have to do this first:

sam user.TESTUSER <user logging in to cyradm> lrswipdca

Does the user you logged in to cyradm with have rights to delete the mailboxes that are not getting deleted?

Thanks and bye, Peer

also you can use wildcards in cyradm
