    Hi,

    and how to do that in order that all cyrus-database entries are correct? I
    think it can't be done by just copying the files from
    /var/spool/imap/user/oldusername to /var/spool/imap/newusername ...

    Meanwhile I've tested renaming the uid of a testuser named "test" to
    "tester" via the webinterrface LDAP-Browser. It seemed looking good first,
    but as I tried to edit this user via the webinterface "user" - "edit" menu,
    I get an error message:
    "LDAP-server return code: 32 Message: LDAP_NO_SUCH_OBJECT
    : The server cannot find an object specified in the request"

    And when trying to rename the mailbox of this test-user with:
    mail:~ # su - cyrus
    cyrus@mail:~ > cyradm --auth plain localhost
    Please enter your password:
    localhost>renamemailbox user.test user.tester

    I get an error message:
    "renamemailbox: Operation is not supported on mailbox"

    sh.t! =:<<

    Any ideas???

    Christoph.
