Sorry dude - disaster on the home front - fire dept water riser decided
to spring a leak in a wall in my loft and in short order, sent a cascade
that left me in several inches of water and seeped all the way down to
share with my neighbors below me - have been mopping, mopping and
mopping since about 4:00 and needed to take a break.

I don't have a rm option...don't know which cyrus options you would
have...
dm is delete mailbox
but 'dm craig' wouldn't normally work
why?
1 - cyrus would have to get the rights to delete the mailbox
2 - on my system, reference is user.craig and craig doesn't exist...
thus
1 - to give cyrus permission to delete...
sam user.craig cyrus lwrsiwpcda # probably the c is all
# that is necessary
2 - to delete...
dm user.craig
that's all there is to deleting a mailbox
but to delete messages...
cd /var/spool/imap/c/user/craig
rm -fr 1* 2* 3* 4* 5* 6* 7* 8* 9*
and then to reconstruct mailbox (because indexes will be out of whack)
su - cyrus -c '/usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/reconstruct -fr user.craig'
man cyradm
man reconstruct
Craig
