Quoting Zhu Zhixin <zhuzhixin@xxxxxxxxxx>:

Hello all,

     When a user is not valid anymore, i usually compress all the user's
mails to an .tar.gz file and then delete the user account from the imapd
server.

    Well, there is situation which i need to read the old mail of the
deleted user. So, before, i restore it from the backup to an
experimental imapd server. It is not convenient.

   I guess there must be other solutions on this. Please help!

As the mails are stored as text files you can read them
with "less" or "more". If you have to access the attachments,
view the html part formarted, you can open the file
with a mailclient wich supports single mails (.eml formart) e.g.
thunderbird or KMail.
