Ok, I've finally twigged / resolved this...
It looks like the actual directory in question was indeed orphaned from
mailboxes.db - due to an issue with names and spaces.
If you miss-spell the name of the mailbox - 'reconstruct' / 'mbexamine'
et'al just return without doing anything.

Are the files on disk owned by user 'cyrus' or are they owned by root?
All owned by cyrus:cyrus - if I pick "any other mailbox" (which looks
identical disk wise) - reconstruct runs, and outputs the name of the

but the full 'path' to the specific mailbox.
Hopefully you're not giving a filesystem path. Reconstruct takes the
mailbox "name", not a path on disk. So something like "user.fred" or
whatever. Maybe that's why it's not finding anything. I often use the
-rfGR flags, with maybe O.

Hi,
I have a Cyrus 2.5.12 server running under FreeBSD. The other day I found
thousands of files in an old mailbox.
The client can't see any of them - so I thought "Ok, I'll reconstruct the
mailbox"
Reconstruct runs, and returns instantly - but the client still can't see
the files.
