NAME

       mbpath - Cyrus IMAP documentation

       Translate mailbox names to filesystem paths

SYNOPSIS

       mbpath [ -C config-file ] [ -q ] [ -s ] [ -m ] [ mailbox-names... ]

DESCRIPTION

       Given  a  mailbox  name  or  a  space  separated list of mailbox names, mbpath outputs the
       filesystem path to the mailbox.

       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 mailbox on disk.

OPTIONS

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

       -q     Suppress any error output.

       -s     If any error occurs, stop processing the list of mailboxes and exit.

       -m     Output the path to the metadata files (if different from the message files).

EXAMPLES

       mbpath user.jsmith
          Display the path for mailbox user.jsmith.

       mbpath -m user.jsmith
          Display the metadata path for mailbox user.jsmith.

FILES

       /etc/imapd.conf, <configdirectory>/mailboxes.db
