For posterity: i tried "squatter -sr" as the cyrus user and was returned "please specify a mailbox to recurse from". I removed the -r and everything went well. I thought i'd need to specify -r to have it recurse through the various folders within the mailboxes but it indexed them all. brian ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
