Oh God, Patrick if you know the magic incantation please say it. I haven't
been able to convince Cyrus to recognize a new mail folder restored from
back-up other than exporting the mailbox.db into text editing it and
reimporting the db. Can I do this without stopping Cyrus? :-o
What I would love to have is an export/import API. Or better said, a back-up
one. Ok, probably it will be really difficult to implement such a thing but
it'll be a real boost to my productivity.
