Well, I was mistaken.
In fact one of me user has an error message when she logs in to the webmail : "you are using 100% of your quota", but no message is shown in the mailbox.
I have done a recontruct -fire on the mailbox and she still have and error message and still no mail in the inbox.
However, when I look inside the mailbox directory, She does have messages for a total size of 27M with a quota of 25M.
What can i do to make the mails appears in the webmail.
Many thanks.
What's a "reconstruct -fire"? Reconstruct -r and -r -f are known to me.
Likely, the messages are deleted, and perhaps not expunged from the mailstore.
You may have the reconstruct syntax incorrect, causing your reconstruct to do nothing.
reconstruct -r "the word user"/userid
is the correct syntax.
Thanks for your help.
I try the following command :
root@myhost # ./reconstruct -r user/xxx@xxx.net
user/xxx@xxx.net/INBOX
user/xxx@xxx.net/Drafts
user/xxx@xxx.net/Sent
user/xxx@xxx.net/Spam
user/xxx@xxx.net/Trash
But still no message displayed even though the webmail tells me there are 630 messages in the mailbox...
The way message deletion works:
1. User clicks "delete". Message is marked for deletion. Nothing is deleted.
2. User clicks "empty trash"COpy of message in trash folder is deleted. Original message is still in inbox.
3. User clicks "expunge folders". Server is now allowed to delete messages. They no longer count towards quota. Quota should be updated when the next message is delivered.
4. 11:00 pm. The nightly message purge happens. The message files are deleted.
If your user is in your default domain, you haven't used the correct reconstruct command. Use:
reconstruct -r user/xxx
