Looks to me like you're domain split with no directory hashing:

For a start you don't want "user at foo", you want "archive at foo", because that's
the user you're trying to reconstruct, assuming that path has actually had
item substitution and isn't invented out of whole cloth.

I believe reconstruct was patched a couple of versions back to support user at domain
paths, but it still works reliably with internal format addresses.  Try this:

reconstruct -r foo\!user.archive

Bron ( you can use single quotes or whatever instead of the backslash - just avoid
       the shell expanding the ! )
