Deleting Mailboxes
First off... I am aware of the "c" right. I am connecting as cyrus (which has been added to the "admins" directive and the server has been restarted.) The mailbox in question was created incorrectly at the top level "foobar" and not "user.foobar". Here are the rights of "foobar": cyrus lrswipcda Here's the command I've attempted to delete the mailbox "foobar": localhost> dm foobar I tried to read as many "google results" as possible before posting here. --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

How can I delete the mailbox? IIRC, give the cyrus user at least the 'c' (create/delete folder) and 'a' (admin) rights. Ken -- Kenneth Murchison Oceana Matrix Ltd.

Deleting mailboxes through cyradm
Hi everyne, I am using the perl version of cyradm. Another problem I have found is that I can't delete a mailbox even after I set the rights of the admin to be able to delete the mailbox. I can create mailboxes no problem. i.e: regprod8> sam user.dummy cyrus d regprod8> dm user.dummy deletemailbox: Permission denied Thanks ahead of time! Benjamin
Deleting mailboxes on master
We cut over from a primary to a replica, and then back again, all within one outage, because we got the primary going again pretty fast. Now we have an interesting situation. The replica told the master about some obsolete mailboxes that no longer exist on the primary. As a result the mupdate from the primary did not rewrite the location of these obsolete mailboxes. They really do exist only on the replica. The replica does not report to the master (if it did, it would fight with the primary about where mailboxes are). Therefore, the following do not change the master: running cyradm on the replica and doing deletemailbox; and deleting the mailbox with an imap client. I have a list of them from running ctl_mboxlist -d on the master. But I can't figure how to remove them from the master's mailbox list. Does anyone have an idea?

Try setting the "c" flag as well and making sure you are logged in as the cyrus user ie cyradm -u cyrus Alain - Original Message - From: "Benjamin Bacon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, August 30, 2001 2:02 PM Subject: Deleting mailboxes through cyradm > Hi everyne, > > I am using the perl version of cyradm.
