Sorry, I should have jumped on this earlier! Stuff will get created in /var/lib/imap/db if BDB support is compiled in, even if you're not using it at all. > But when I stop cyrus, the db folder just contains the DB_CONFIG file > and a 4 > byte "skipstamp" file.

It's not related to the lib/cyrusdb files at all - it's purely mailbox files (cyrus.index and cyrus.expunge) related. >> I don't know, did you also check the ownership and permissions of all >> directories? > > Yes.

I wish I could help with this - but the memories have faded and I don't have the time to dig through all my emails looking for my descriptions of where I found the bugs in all this - I wound up just replacing the whole blob of code (over a thousand lines!) with about 20 lines of pretty clear code, using a new model of doing mailbox repacks that's a lot simpler.
