[Dovecot] stupid migration from maildir+ to dbox
Hello. I'm install latest dovecot 1.2 from hg repo. I have many messages in maildir+ format. I migrate some folders to dbxo format using instructions from http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/dbox. But in two folders i'm delete index.cache and index.log files, this is my mistake. Is that possible to recover this files (regenerate) or use my messages from maildir with dbox? Thank You for any tips and help. P.S. Thank You for best e-mail software!

Does that mailbox now show up empty? You didn't mention if you deleted also dovecot.index file? If you delete dovecot.index* and dbox.index, it should rebuild the entire dbox from the files it finds in the mailbox.
