I have just converted from 1.6.24 to 2.0.17
I have a large number of folders in the database which do not really exist.
This is because I had tested the procedure for converting the 1.6.24
mailboxes file to the 2.0.17 mailbox.db a month ago and failed to remove
the db files on doing this on the recent copy of the mailboxes file. I had
expected the database to get overwritten.
I intend to do
ctl_mboxlist -d > mailboxes
Then run a script to check each folder in this file and only write out the
line if it exists in the mail hierarchy. Then do
ctl_moxlist -u < mailboxes.clean
My question is should I remove everything in the db directory before doing
the ctl_mboxlist -u ?
