Re: Can't delete folders after migration to a new server

You've listed the version of Cyrus-SASL, not of Cyrus-IMAP. cyrus-sasl
v2.1.27 dates from late 2018, so it's not terribly old. But we'd need to
know the old and new version of cyrus-imap.
You'd need to review the release notes spanning from your old version to
the new one to see what changes have been made which might require such
interventions as database dump & restore.
However, reviewing your original email, you wrote (emphasis mine):
> What I've checked:

The use of "-f" won't do what you expect if you've deleted "cyrus.*
recursively." From the manual (emphasis mine),
-f Examine the filesystem underneath mailbox, _adding all
directories with a __|cyrus.header|__found there as new mailboxes_.
Useful for restoring mailboxes from backups.
If you've deleted cyrus.header, then 'reconstruct -f' won't consider the
directory a mailbox, and will ignore it. This would explain your
inability to delete old mailboxes.
You can confirm whether or not the system recognizes these mailboxes
with a dump of mailboxes.db, 'sudo <Cyrus binaries path>/ctl_mboxlist
-d' and grep it for your mailbox of interest.
Cheers,
