I have a use who claims that they lost all the mail in their Inbox when their laptop went to sleep. I copied the contents of /usr/local/virtual/mydomain/hisusername/cur from the backup HD to the same place on the main HD.
When he logs in now with Mail.app he sees no emails in his Inbox, but if he logs in using ThunderBird or RoundCube, he sees 2. He should see over 20 emails.
Is there anyway to update the courierimap database or index or something?
James you could try to remove the file courierimapuidb which is a flat file db of all the mails. It will be rebuild automatically after a re-login of the user. Please let me know if this works for you/him. I've tried this is on my test system succesfully but didn't loose any mail beforehand.
