Hi,check if the mails are flagged as \Deleted. Some Clients do not show these mails by default.
https://www.cyrusimap.org/2.5/imap/faqs/o-deleted-expired-expunged-purged.html You use mbexamine to see the number of Mails Flagged as \Deleted withmbexamine "user/loginID" | grep -e "^ Deleted: " -e "Mailbox Size:" -e "^Examining "
or which mails are flagged as deleted with " mbexamine "user/loginID" | grep -B3 "FLAG_DELETED" Which cyrus version are you using. Quoting Marcus Schopen <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxx>:
Hi, in a user's INBOX folder are about 10k files in the cyrus spool, all deleted. The folder is shown as empty in different clients. New incoming mails are displayed correctly. An unexpunge -l shows only about 20 deleted newser files. It seems that almost all files are not present in cyrus.index and that there are orphaned mails in files system. I don't want to reconstruct the folder as this will restore all mails. How do I delete all files in a folder that are not listed in the index, so that the folder is also emptied file system too.
