I'm not sure if your entire plan is safe, however, reconstruct is
safe. An individual mailbox or folder just gets locked during the
actual reconstruct. Note that it'll increase your I/O load by a
pretty large amount during the reconstruct.
I thought that if a mailbox was in use by a client (opened state) then
reconstruct would fail for that mailbox? Can someone confirm that
reconstruct won't skip the mailbox while the user is writing/reading to
the mailbox?
