I thought the whole point of reconstruct was to rebuild mailboxes.db, 
but then I took another look at the reconstruct man page and noticed:


   -m     NOTE: CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE
          Rebuild the mailboxes file. Use whatever data in the
          existing  mailboxes file it can scavenge, then scans
          all partitions listed in the imapd.conf(5) file for
          additional mailboxes.


now it's no longer clear to me what reconstruct does.  I guess rebuild 
the {configdir}/user/<prefix>/<username>/cyrus.* files?
