Restoring a deleted imap folder from backup to user Maildir
by Kepa Lyman 02 Feb '17

Hi, A user accidentally delete a folder from their Maildir (probably while using Thunderbird). The folder was at Archives/Sent/2015 (/.Archives.Sent.2015 in the Maildir format). I attempted to copy the folder from a tar backup into the Maildir folder but the new folder does not show up in Thunderbird or in the Subscribe option. I also copied the .Archives.Sent. folder as well. A "Sent" folder shows up after this in Thunderbird's Subscribe menu but not the 2015 subfolder. Is there some other additional step(s) to undertake when moving Maildir folders around so they show up in Dovecot (or Thunderbird- though I did try deleting Thunderbird's local mail tmp folder).
