[Kolab-devel] [issue22] Deleting users - DOESNT WORK

[Stephan Buys]

This means the Kolab Daemon is not cleaning up the mailboxes and deleting the entries from LDAP.

The process works as follows:

1) You "delete" a user, which sets the deleteflag : TRUE attribute for the object in LDAP.
2) The kolab daemon detects this and it deletes the mailbox in Cyrus IMAP
3) After deleting the Cyrus IMAP mailbox it deletes the entry from LDAP.

I would first recommend trying to restart the Daemon, if this doesn't work you can:

a) delete the entry from LDAP
b) delete the mailbox from Cyrus IMAP using cyradm
	- login to server using cyradm with the manager user
	- Set the ACL to the user's mailbox for manager to c
	- remove the mailbox

Kind regards,
Stephan Buys
