chk_cyrus  is  used  to  perform  a  consistency  check  on  the  cyrus  datastore,  and output a list of
       files/directories that are expected to exist, but do not.  Status messages are output to stderr, the list
       of files/directories is output to stdout.  This list can be passed to a backup program to aid  a  partial
       restoration, for instance.

       chk_cyrus reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.

       chk_cyrus - Cyrus IMAP documentation

       Perform a consistency check of the Cyrus IMAP mail spool.

-Cconfig-file
              Use the specified configuration file config-file rather than the default imapd.conf(5).

       -Ppartition,--partition=partition
              Limit to partition partition.  May not be specified with -M.

       -Mmailbox,--mailbox=mailbox
              Only check mailbox mailbox.  May not be specified with -P.

              IMPORTANT:
                 The   mailbox   must   be   specified  in  the  internal  format,  so  rather  than  specifying
                 user/john/Trash@example.org, you will want to specify example.org!user.john.Trash.
