Stop Cyrus, then do the following: mv deliver.db deliver.db.bak mkdir db.bak cp -p db/ db.bak/ rm db/* Then start Cyrus. Cyrus will recreate the deliver.db file. deliver.db is used to track duplicate messages and to keep track of vacation days. Starting with a fresh deliver.db means that any vacation responders your users have set will be reset (senders may receive the vacation message again if they send to your user). There is not much harm in this.
