Wierd,
Yesterday it happened the same to me, my partner told me that a folder disapeared, and i say to him that maybe was outlook express or he deleted it accidently.
But not with this i'm concluding that the same happened to me.

Subject: [Dbmail] DBMail deleting mail folders without request?


I have a dbmail based mail server running on mysql as the database. This has been running for 3-4 months.

I have noticed just recently that it is marking folders in the dbmail_mailboxes table with deleted_flag=1. This was not intentional and seems to happen a lot. I have had to stop expunging from the database due to fear of losing company email.

I found a huge amount of folder throughout the company that had this flag, set. Maybe half of them, maybe 2/3. So I manually did an

update dbmail_mailboxes set deleted_flag=0 where deleted_flag=1;

in mysql to reset it all back to normal but within 2 weeks I have another load of folders with the deleted flag set including my bosses who insists he has not deleted those. They still appear in his mail client.

Does anybody know why it is doing this? Is it a bug?
This is critical. If the system is going wonky and I can't fix it or stabilize it then I will have to think about migration away before it's too late.

Help anyone?
