relocate_by_id — Cyrus IMAP documentation

Relocate mailbox trees by their mailbox ids

relocate_by_id [ -C config-file ] [ -n ] [ -q ] [ -u ] [ mailbox-names... ]

Given a mailbox name or a space separated list of mailbox names, relocate_by_id relocates the mailbox and its submailboxes to directory trees hashed by mailbox id rather than hashed by mailbox name.

relocate_by_id reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C. It uses <configdirectory>/mailboxes.db to locate the mailboxes on disk.

-C config-file

Use the specified configuration file config-file rather than the default imapd.conf(5).

-n,  --dry-run

Do NOT make any changes.  Just list which directories will be relocated.

-q,  --quiet

Run quietly.  Suppress any error output.

-u,  --userids

The specified mailbox-names are users, not mailboxes. User metadata directories will also be relocated.

/etc/imapd.conf, <configdirectory>/mailboxes.db

imapd.conf(5)
