Thank you for your answer. The problem is that the data are on a damaged
disk, I can see the cyrus.cache, cyrus.index and cyrus.headers in ever
(sub) folder but not the individual messages.

Individual messages actually contain the data in the message. With the cyrus.* files the e-mail client may show the messages in a list but as soon as the client tried to open a message it would be "empty".

    you must recover the enitre mailbox from your backup, for example
    user called "generic"

    at this point you use reconstruct to rebuild hte mailbox with cyrus
    index files

    su cyrus
    reconstruct -r -f user.generic

    then you rebuild hte quota

    quota -f user.generic

    and you are done.

    But you must recover the individual message files in the mailbox
    path otherwise you are lost.


    /var/spool/imap/g/user/generic

    Hi list,

    Is it possible to recover imap mailboxes with:
    cyrus.cache, cyrus.index and cyrus.headers?

    The OS is maxosx server 10.4

    I want to recover mail from the backup but I cannot find the
    individual message files.

    Regards, Chantal
