I do not believe 'unexpunge' is correct in this case. 'unexpunge' is for unexpunging messages which have been deleted & expunged. It's got nothing to do with recovering deleted mailboxes. For more on this, please see this page, which describes the proper terms & meanings:
http://www.cyrusimap.org/imap/reference/admin/sop/deleting.htmlAs explained on that page, Albert's approach is the correct one. However, I have no idea why he's running into the problems.

I got a very weird problem. Someone delete his sent mailbox so I try to
rename it.
I'm connect though cyradm and try to rename it here a copy/paste of the
terminal (only the username was redacted)
Check the mailbox name
127.0.0.1> lam DELETED.user.username.Sent.63CF5710
username lrswipkxtecdan
then try to rename it
127.0.0.1> renamemailbox DELETED.user.username.Sent.63CF5710 user.username.sent-202301240457
renamemailbox: Invalid mailbox name
maybe it's the target name ?
127.0.0.1> cm user.username.sent-202301240457
127.0.0.1> lam user.username.sent-202301240457
username lrswipkxtecdan
no so try
127.0.0.1> renamemailbox DELETED.user.username.Sent.63CF5710 user.username.sent-202301240457
renamemailbox: Mailbox already exists
ok that's normal, now remove
127.0.0.1> sam user.username.sent-202301240457 cyradm lrswipkxtecdan
127.0.0.1> dm user.username.sent-202301240457
and
127.0.0.1> rename DELETED.user.username.Sent.63CF5710 user.username.sent-202301240457
WTF ?
Any idea what I'm doing wrong ?
Regards
