Re: Account re-initialization after directory deletion

Hi,

Easiest fix is to re-create the directory of the account that was  
deleted, with the cyrus.* files in it.

Easiest thing if you can find an empty account on your server.  cp -pr  
it to your account name, ensure the permissions are the same (owner  
cyrus) then you can reconstruct -r -f user.usernamethatwasdeleted

then you should be good to go.

Basic problem was/is that the folder does not exist anymore and you  
need to re-create it so the system see's it again and it works.

Best of luck
