Mailbox not found issue [Scanned]

[Matt Moldvan]

I'd recommend renaming it with a "renm
user/justin at bryanhousing.orguser/justin at bryanhousing.org.old",
then recreating that same user via the Kolab Admin portal, copying over
everything except for the cyrus.* files, then running a reconstruct.

When you're reconstructing, you should see a bunch of output like "uid 25
not found - adding to index".  This means Cyrus is finding the old e-mails
and adding them to a cyrus.index file...
