you could delete the courierimapuiddb file in each subdirectory affected.
courier imap should rebuild its index next time the directory is updated

Subject: [courier-users] Rotating mail on a monthly basis


> We are currently in the process of moving our IMAP server from mbox to
> maildir with courier.  One of the few problems I have yet to solve is
> the problem of rotating mail folders on a monthly basis.  We have a
> script that gets called on the first of every month to move a specified
> mail folder from foo to foo-Month-Year, and create a new, empty foo.
>
> I'm trying to write an equivalent for Maildir.  I'm not an expert on
> Maildir, so I'm not entirely sure what the safe way to do this is.
> Currently, I create a new folder called foo-Month-Year and then rename
> foo/new/* to foo-Month-Year/new/* and foo/cur/* to foo-Month-Year/cur/*
>
> This seems to work, but it seems that my IMAP client does not get
> notified of this change - all the messages are now listed in the folder
> index for both folders, although I can't select them in the old folder.
> Is there any way to get courier to notify the client that the folder has
> changed and the index needs to be re-read?  Also, what should I do with
> the courierimapuiddb file?
>
> many thanks,
