Hi,

I have admin (cyrus) rights on the mailbox.

The solution in this case is a

     dm user.USERNAME.*

this seems to remove everything from user USERNAME without the risk
deleting some similar named user  (...USERNAME* can cause some trouble).

Thanks, Peer

        No, not at our system. I did
        <br>
        <br>
               dm user.TESTUSER   # all users have SPAM,Sent,Drafts as
        default mailboxes

        After this command, the mailbox   TESTUSER was removed, but
        user.TESTUSER.{SPAM,Sent,Drafts}
        <br>
        exist (in cyrus and on the filesystem).

      Does the user you logged in to cyradm with have rights to delete
      the mailboxes that are not getting deleted?
      <br>
      <br>
      <br>
      Might have to do this first:
      <br>
      <br>
      sam user.TESTUSER &lt;user logging in to cyradm&gt; lrswipdca
