    We had a bad crash last week. AppleRAID went kaboom.

    (don’t get me started on the sins of AppleRAID)

    After restoring our e-mail from back-up and performing RECONSTRUCT on our IMAP store, things are looking better… Except all user quotas are wrong.

    I tried performing this…
    % sudo -u cyrus /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/quota -f

    But it gives me this attitude:
    quota: can’t read mailboxes file

    Grrrr! I need to get the quota police back on the beat! My users care little how much space their e-mail occupies on our server.

    It’s a 10.3.9 server.

    I downloaded mailbfr and it was able to repair my quota.

    I’m pretty sure that the problem I was encountering was caused by me trying to repair the quota WHILE CYRUS WAS STILL RUNNING.

    I’m an idiot.
