I've done so with no issues as long as permissions and ownership are accurate.

Hi all,

I have a user (coworker) that accidentally deleted a mailbox and all its 
sub-mailboxes.

I use Maildir format storage.  I have backups.

Is it enough to put the mailbox folder back where it was? I'm talking about the folder that contains 'cur', 'new', 'tmp', 'dovecot-uidlist', etc. Or would this desynchronize or otherwise confuse dovecot? Or is it preferable to use some doveadm command? Or...?

Thanks,

Sean
