I have used rsync to move our entire maill store from the old server to the new. I now I wish to move the contents of mailboxes.db from the old to the new.

If I press <cr> I see this: line 1: no partition found line 2: no partition found line 3: no partition found . . . There is only one partition on both systems and it is '/var/spool/imap' on both. I have also tried the method suggested on the 3.0.6 documentation respecting upgrading and use rsync to move over mailboxes.db. In each case I cannot get reconstruct to run and upgrade or rebuild the mail store on the new service. # sudo -u cyrus /usr/local/cyrus/sbin/reconstruct -r -f -V * # I get an immediate empty return. I know that there exist physical mailboxes on the server that cyradm does not report. I know that these mailboxes exist on the old server and therefore I infer are present in mailboxess.db. How do I get the contents of the old mailboxes.db file into the new so that reconstruct will run?
Pretty sure you are using -f incorrectly. Try this:sudo -u cyrus /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/ctl_mboxlist -d > /var/spool/imap/mailboxes.db.txt
on the old followed by a transfer of /var/spool/imap/mailboxes.db.txt to the new followed by:sudo -u cyrus /usr/local/cyrus/sbin/ctl_mboxlist -u < /var/spool/imap/mailboxes.db.txt
on the new
