I have OpenXchange 7.5 running on Gentoo. Been using it since 7.5
came out and It has grown to be a really big dependency in our
company. So I had to buy support mainly for upgrade reasons. This
also means I had to buy SUSE Linux and end my 'all' gentoo server
network.
So here is the deal. I backup my cyrus-imap server by stopping the
server and rsyncing to a machine with a tape drive hooked up to it. A
fairly common approach to imap backup I think. Anyways now I am
trying to restore those directories on a different server (SUSE). I
prefer not to go to this list if I do not have to.
I took the entire /var/spool/imap directory and /var/imap and copied
it to the new server. Set up the imapd.conf to reflect the correct
directory structure and tried to reconstruct. No luck I am only
getting only the MailBoxes and not the actual mails.
What needs to happen for me to get this working?
I have tried the following
su - cyrus su cyrus -c "/usr/lib/cyrus/bin/reconstruct"
this again built the mailboxes (folders)
then I tried
su cyrus -c "/usr/lib/cyrus/bin/reconstruct -f -r user/myuser"
and still I can not see mail messages.
the -m option appears to be something I may want but that feature
seems to be unavailable.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Brett
