Cyrus Folder Deletion

[David Alix]

Have you checked whether the folders were moved rather than deleted?  We've 
had about a half dozen instances in the last 6 months where users have 
accidentally moved a folder into a subfolder.   We've chalked it up to user 
error, but honestly can't figure out how a folder can be moved without a 
concerted effort.  This has happend with Mulberry and Execmail as clients. 
BTW, our IMAP server is a cousin of the cyrus mailer, from MessagineDirect.
