NAME
       reconstruct - Reconstructs IMAP mailboxes

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/bin/reconstruct [-r] mailbox...

       /usr/bin/reconstruct -m

OPTIONS
       Recursively reconstruct all sub-mailboxes of the mailboxes or mailbox prefixes given as arguments.  Rebuild the mailboxes file.	Uses what-
       ever data in the existing mailboxes file it can collect, then scans all partitions listed in the imapd.conf(4) file  for  additional  mail-
       boxes.

DESCRIPTION
       The  reconstruct  command rebuilds one or more IMAP mailboxes.  When invoked with the -m switch, it rebuilds the master mailboxes file.	It
       can be used to recover from almost any sort of data corruption.

       If the reconstruct command can find existing header and index files, it attempts to preserve any data in them that is  not  derivable  from
       the  message  files themselves.	The state reconstruct attempts to preserve includes the option names, option state, and internal date. The
       reconstruct command derives all other information from the message files.

       The reconstruct command reads its configuration options from the imapd.conf(4) file.

       The reconstruct command does not adjust the quota usage recorded in any quota root files.  After running the reconstruct command,  run  the
       imapquota(8) command with the -f switch in order to fix the quota root files.

FILES
       Configuration file for the IMAP server
