problems with deleted messages and reconstruct

[Rodrigo Ventura]

I didn’t apply any patch. This is a vanilla cyrus imap clean install.

Shouldn’t reconstruct -O take care of non indexed files? Should I assume that, if it didn’t delete them, they are still indexed? How can I list all expunged/non-deleted mails?

Thank you,
Rodrigo
