In a cyrus ima server I administer someone deleted manually a mailbox

In the cyradm the mailbox still exists, and I can't delete it.
Theres a method for deleting the mailbox manully? Any help will be
appreciated.
Try this:
1. Create an empty cyrus.header file in the filesystem where the mailbox
should exist (touch /var/spool/imap/user/themailbox/cyrus.header).
2. Give it the correct ownership and permissions.
3. Run (as your cyrus user) "reconstruct -f -x user.themailbox".
This should give you an empty mailbox again. Then you can use cyradm to
delete the mailbox correctly.
