You should be able to delete the deliver, annotations, and tls_sessions db files along with the files in /var/lib/imap/db and restart without any loss of data. If this does not fix the problem you likely have issue with the mailboxes db file. In that case, you will likely have to replace it with a file from /var/lib/imap/db.backup1 You will lose any new folders/mailboxes created since the backup was created. You can use reconstruct -rf to find these though.... --Blake -------- Original Message -------- Subject: DBERROR - how do I recover?
