Error dragging and dropping a folder from one server to another for only one user

Forgive me, but what is "telemetry".  I talked to our mac guru and he 
was unaware what that was either.   This problem continues to plague us 
even if we use cyradm and delete the account outright.   We verify that 
the account was deleted and the directory in the mail store was gone. 
Then when it comes back the problem still exists.

A new finding (and work-around) is that if we drag local folders to the 
mail server having issues, the folders copy.  The problem exists from 
server to server (same versions and all).   So our work-around is to 
copy the one server's folders to the local disk and then over to the new 
server.

Thanks
David
