# Cyrus IMAP

# cyr_userseen

is used to clear seen state information for the mail store.

Warning

This command does not take a constraining argument but acts on the entire mail store, removing all user seen state for all mailboxes and all users.

## Synopsis

    cyr_userseen [ -C config-file ] [ -d ]

## Description

cyr_userseen will clear all user seen state for the mail store.

Running without any options will show what would be done, but will not actually alter existing state.

cyr_userseen reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.

## Options

`-C` `config-file`

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

`-d```

  Actually delete all user seen state information.

## Examples

    cyr_userseen

> Display what would be changed were the -d flag used.
