I'm running a mail server with cyrus imap and postfix. I've had
a bit of a disaster where a runaway process, not related to
email, filled my root directory. I've take care of that and got
most of the space back but now I'm not receiving email and
maillog is reporting this:

I've had to reconstruct mail boxes before but nothing like this!
Any idea how to repair this mess? I'm running CentOS 6.

1. Stop Cyrus
<br>
2. Delete /var/lib/imap/deliver.db
<br>
3. Delete the contents of /var/lib/imap/db/
<br>
4. Start Cyrus
<br>
<br>
deliver.db contains (mainly) transient data about messages. If
you delete it, you may get a repeated message from anyone using a
vacation responder, but otherwise there are no negative
consequences.
