If the mailbox still exists in the DELETED hierarchy, then you can simply rename the mailbox using cyradm: rename DELETED.user.<username> user.<username> This is only true if you are using delayed delete mode in imapd.conf: delete_mode: delayed If the mailbox no longer exists in the DELETED hierarchy, follow these steps: 1. Re-create the mailbox using cyradm: cm user.<username> 2. Recover the message files (#. files) but not the cyrus.* files 3. Run "su cyrus -c '/usr/local/cyrus/bin/reconstruct -x -f user.<username>'" 4. Run "su cyrus -c '/usr/local/cyrus/bin/quota -f user.<username>'" Let us know if you have any questions!
