I'm going to take a shot in the dark, BIG Endian vs. Little Endian? Unfortunately I do believe bdb databases do care if it was big or little... and going from Sparc (BIG) to x86 (little)... Would not work very well :( I am going to guess that a reconstruct may not be a bad idea, your seen databases may or may not work, and pretty much guess that any and all databases related to Cyrus will need to be re-worked... I'm sure someone like Bron (fastmail.fm) might have something already whipped up for this. ... Seen should be in /var/imap/user ... I would check on sieve (it is compiled also) ... (/var/imap/sieve?) as well as /var/imap/db/* then the /var/spool/imap/a/user/.. and you can more then likely just do a reconstruct -rf and be fine... This is at least what I would do, I might have overstated how much "fun" it will be, or under.
