- Have another human readable mailbox ID <-> name mapping file which is used if the binary index is corrupted. If mailboxes are created/deleted/renamed often, this would just slow things down. Might be a good idea optionally though.
The Mailbox structure usually is not changed that often. Maybe just provide a way to dump/export the current mapping to a specially formatted text file and a way to manually load/import a provided dump file.
This way, administrators can configure daily cron jobs to dump the current mailbox state and if a mapping really gets lost, a "pretty good" mapping could be reconstructed without any runtime penalty.
- If the ID <-> name mapping is lost, the mailboxes could be created using those IDs as their names.
Yes, for example, with the option to overwrite this synthesized mapping with the latest dump.
