Go into the area of the filesystem where the mails are stored. Go into the directory with the emails for that user (eg, if user is "fred" then "f/user/fred"). Look to see if there are some files with names ending ".NEW"; if there are, then I think that the system didn't shut down cleanly and the cyrus index information has been left locked -- the server not keeping record of changes to seen state is consistent with the .NEW files being present. If this is the case, then you need to "reconstruct" the folder. As the cyrus user, "reconstruct user.fred" (or user/fred, if you're using the Unix hierarchy separator). Eg: # su - cyrus -c 'reconstruct user.fred' If there are not .NEW files present, then I pass.
