Problems checkpointing DB after upgrade

[Daniel]

Hello all,

I'm running Cyrus 2.2.3 (after upgrading from something like 2.0.5 or somesuch old version 
from last year) on FreeBSD 5.1 with the recommended database structures (skiplist front 
end, etc), and I keep getting this in my logs:

====================

====================

A listing of /var/imap gives:

====================

Which looks right.  IMAP, POP3, and mail delivery seem to work just fine.  But these 
checkpointing errors are bugging me.  While I understand the setup and administration of 
cyrus well, I am not at all familiar with its inner workings or how to troubleshoot why I'm 
getting sync errors and these problems.  Can somebody shed some light on this for me?  
Thanks!!!
