.sp
Translate mailbox names to filesystem paths
.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
.nf
\fBmbpath\fP [ \fB\-C\fP \fIconfig\-file\fP ] [ \fB\-l\fP ] [ \fB\-m\fP ] [ \fB\-q\fP ] [ \fB\-s\fP ] [ \fB\-u\fP ] [ \fB\-a\fP | \fB\-A\fP | \fB\-M\fP | \fB\-S\fP | \fB\-U\fP ] [ \fImailbox\-names\fP\&... ]
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Given a mailbox name or a space separated list of mailbox names,
\fBmbpath\fP outputs the filesystem path(s) of the mailbox.  By default,
the mailboxes\(aq data partition paths are shown (same as \fB\-D\fP).
See \fI\%Selectors\fP for selecting which filesystem path(s) to output.
.sp
\fBmbpath\fP reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by \fB\-C\fP\&. It uses <configdirectory>/mailboxes.db
to locate the mailboxes on disk.
