Hi,

As an user has left my company, I need to copy their mails stored in a mailbox into another user's mailbox. I did "cp" command and all the needed mails are now physically in the destination mailbox but I can't see them from the mail client (thunderbird). I tried the command "reconstruct -r" but no success...

I've a postfix/cyrus mail system with ldap authenfication

Thanks in advance,

may be you could try with this software: imapsync, if you have an IMAP server in both servers.

Actually, the two mailboxes are on the same server

it should be the same, just put "localhost" for both host in imapsync command parameters
