Hello.

I attempted to reconstruct some damaged mailboxes with empty
folders, but it does not work. I use this command:

su -l cyrus -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/lib/cyrus/reconstruct -f -r user/user@domain"

Mail directory contains "Trash" subdirectory without any files (manualy
created from backup). Reconstruct works if I put any of files cyrus.* to
this subdirectory. At the same time there was the opposite problem:
I can not delete existing directory, reconstruct restores it.

Is this is a bug or require any other settings to run reconstruct ?

I usually use these steps to add a new folder using reconstruct:

  touch cyrus.header
  chown cyrus:mail cyrus.header
  reconstruct -f -r user.<username>

So, I think the behavior you are seeing is expected. Create an empty cyrus.header file, with the correct ownership, before running reconstruct.
