Hi,

I had enabled an option in dovecot. mail_attachment_dir = /var/mail/virtual/copymail/attachments

After a while I checked /var/mail/virtual and did some cleanup. I did not remember that copymail was specified in dovecot and erased it.

Oct 30 10:56:05 mx0 dovecot: imap(hidden): Error: file_istream.stat(/var/mail/virtual/copymail/attachments/6a/50/6a506530265ef7c9feb396410eaf6946036e9a79-b034401e794009503a0400002cb72ff6) failed: No such file or directory

I have Bacula and have restored most of the stuff, but obviously not all files. That is not too important. But I do not know, how to tell dovecot that it may "forget" about files that produce a "No such file or directory" error.

Can I do some "rescan/rebuild" in dovecot?

Kind regards
