Sorry about that, my recollection of -p functionality was incorrect.  It 
will add mailboxes whose parent directory isn't a mailbox, but you still 
have to specify the path to the mailbox.  So for example if you 
know /var/spool/cyrus/mail/c/user/psmith/CLIENTS/submailboxname is valid, 
then; 
/usr/sbin/cyrreconstruct -p default user/psmith/CLIENTS/submailboxname
should add "submailboxname" even if "CLIENTS" is just a directory without 
cyrus metadata.  The "-rf" functionality is slightly different because it 
needs a valid mailbox to start from.  
If you have a lot of these cases, you might be able to automate this by 
running "ctl_mboxlist -v" and cutting out the mailboxes that are listed 
as being on the filesystem but not in the database.
