Thanks, all, for the generous help. Bron asked about output from
reconstruct, which never provided any. It turns out that I was using the wrong
delimiters (., per chk_cyrus output, rather than /), and reconstruct wasn't
even trying. It looks like all the missing mail is accessible again.

How would you do the IMAP append? Using a Perl::IMAP function?
This isn't necessarily a concern for this list, but a few days ago I
upgraded a site from cyrus 2

Simon,
I did recover /var/lib/imap (although a bit later, FWIW) and
/etc/imapd.conf. I just now compared /etc/cyrus.conf and added squatter
& adjusted prefork numbers -- the rest all matched.
Is there other configuration I should check? Both systems are 64-bit

I think "a bit later" is your problem. But I think reconstruct should fix
this.
BTW, did you check the subscription status of mailboxes? Maybe the folders
are there but not subscribed, and that's why some users can't s

A script to find each file and IMAP append it? Just thinking outside the box
here!

All,
I have run a small mail service based on Cyrus IMAP for a few
years. The (CentOS 5) server I've used for the past couple years failed
last week. I brought up a new CentOS 5 system on a new Linux server,
installed cyrus-imapd-2.3.7-7.el5_4.3, mounted the old /var disk
(actually one of
