[Dovecot] Restoring Mails from Backup Archive

Hi List,

i am trying to restore mails from an backup-archive which was made with rsnapshot.

All the mails in the archive look similar like the following:

-rw------- 2 1014 1015 3308 8. Aug 13:42 1312803768.V809I266a00aM505178.server:2,ST

Now I copy the files from the archive into the Maildir/cur directory of the user.

Then I set the permissions etc. and log in with the user account via Squirrelmail.

The restored mails aren't in the INBOX, and when I go into the Maildir/cur dir of the user, the restored mails are gone. Possibly deleted after the login.

Had anyone some similar experiences ?

Any hints ?

Kind regards

Andreas
