You can specify the prefix for deleted mailboxes with the 'deletedprefix' option in imapd.conf. It defaults to DELETED, so anything deleted will go into a tree starting with that, preserving the same structure as on the live partition.
I was aware of that, but with three partitions you won't know on which it is and which hash letter was used (we are using fulldirhash as well).
It's been our understanding that the delayed delete process is really just a rename under the hood. It just renames the mailboxes to somewhere outside the 'normal' area so that users no longer see them. As such, we've generally had success by just doing another rename to get the mailbox back. If the user hadn't gone and created a new mailbox with the same name, then it would just be: cyradm> rename DELETED/user/foo/bar/baz/TIMECODE user/foo/bar/baz [partition] If the mailbox was indeed recreated in the interim, then we usually just add a suffix to the mailbox and tell the user where it is: cyradm> rename DELETED/user/foo/bar/baz/TIMECODE user/foo/bar/baz_RESTORE [partition]
That's great! I wish I had known that before :-) --On 23. Juli 2008 20:41:52 -0400 Wesley Craig <wes@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:

That's another great tip!
A little convoluted, but you can get the human readable time by subtracting the time code above (which is in hex) from "now". E.g.: : ; date +"%s" 1216859626 : ; dc 1216859626 16i 487BF841 -p 1216084033 775593 : ; date --date="-775593 seconds" Mon Jul 14 21:11:28 EDT 2008 : ; OK, maybe more than a little convoluted...
I'm note really a dc fiend, so I'm not 100% sure what you are doing there, but doesn't this work just as well?
% perl -e 'print scalar localtime(hex "487BF841")."\n"'

The difference in time is only because of our different timezones ...
Thanks for all the help, Sebastian
