NAME
mbpath - Cyrus IMAP documentation
Translate mailbox names to filesystem paths
SYNOPSIS
mbpath [ -C config-file ] [ -l ] [ -m ] [ -q ] [ -s ] [ -u | -p ] [ -a | -A | -M | -S | -U ] [ mailbox-names... ]
DESCRIPTION
Given a mailbox name or a space separated list of mailbox names, mbpath outputs the filesystem path(s) of the mailbox. By default, the mailboxes' data partition paths are shown (same as -D). See Selectors for selecting which filesystem path(s) to output.
mbpath reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C. It uses <configdirectory>/mailboxes.db to locate the mailboxes on disk.
OPTIONS
- -C config-file
- Use the specified configuration file config-file rather than the default imapd.conf(5).
- -l, --local-only
- Local mailboxes only (exits with error for remote or nonexistent mailboxes)
- -m
- Output the path to the metadata files (if different from the message files). Legacy, use -M.
- -q, --quiet
- Suppress any error output.
- -s, --stop
- If any error occurs, stop processing the list of mailboxes and exit.
- -u, --userids
- The specified mailbox-names are userids, not mailboxes.
- -p, --paths
- The specified mailbox-names are UNIX mailbox paths, not mailboxes.
SELECTORS
- -A, --archive
- Show the mailbox archive path
- -D, --data
- Show the mailbox data path (default)
- -M, --metadata
- Show the mailbox metadata path (same as -m)
- -S, --sieve
- Show the user sieve scripts path
- -U, --user-files
- Show the user files path (seen, sub, etc)
- -a, --all
- Show all paths, as if all selectors were specified
EXAMPLES
mbpath user.jsmith
Display the data path for mailbox
user.jsmith.
mbpath -M user.jsmith
Display the metadata path for mailbox
user.jsmith.
mbpath -u -S jsmith
Display the sieve scripts path for user
jsmith.
FILES
/etc/imapd.conf, <configdirectory>/mailboxes.db
