Check your syslog files, whichever one Cyrus is logging to.  I suspect 
you'll see something related to your "seen" file.

A corrupt seen file could be causing your problem.  Seen files are stored 
in {$configdir}/user/prefix/username.seen.  My seen file is:

   /var/spool/cyrus/config/user/m/morgan.seen

If it is corrupt, you may be able to repair it.  Seen files have been 
stored by default in Skiplist format for quite a while.  You can google 
get "skiplist.py", a script to fix corrupted Skiplist files, from:

   http://oss.netfarm.it/python-cyrus.php

Hope this helps!
