restoring old mail messages

[corner at chello.at]

Hello and thanks,

I have tried the reconstruct program.  The problem is the header files cyrus.*
are corrupt.  There are many messages in the mailboxes, but they don't show up
in a mail client.  Reconstruct takes no time to execute and acts as if it is
doing nothing.

Thanks,

Tom Corner
