In a bad attempt of correcting a non-related error, I deleted, and recreated, the control and index directories; now, the only e-mail showing up, in all user mailboxes, is mail that has been delivered afterward. How do I make dovecot regenerate the control and index files so that the old e-mail shows up? John

Try talking IMAP protocol manually. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TestInstallation
