Ah, more involved than that - the crash on 2.4.10 seems to have left the spool in an odd state, like it was completely reorganizing the spool and got interrupted: - $SPOOL is located in /opt/csw/var/cyrus/mail/ - Original emails were left in $SPOOL/.u/g/user/gmarler/ - A partial copy (subfolders all empty) was here: $SPOOL/g/user/gmarler/ (I wasn't looking here) - Another complete copy was here: $SPOOL/user/gmarler/ (This is what I was looking at, but Cyrus wasn't) - Merged everything from $SPOOL/.u/g/user/gmarler/ and $SPOOL/user/gmarler/ into $SPOOL/g/user/gmarler/ - Ran reconstruct -p default -rf user.gmarler - Started cyrus and started getting these errors: DBERROR db4: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery - Killed off the master and cleaned up the DB4 *.db databases (except for db/) - Ran reconstruct -rf user.gmarler - Restarted master Now everything from 1995 shows up. Thanks for that extra tip!
