strange message in the cyrus log

[Daniel Eckl]

Hi!

deliver.db is just used to suppress duplicate delivery and for
suppressing sieve vacation mails coming more often that configured
("days" setting).

So I'd suggest to stop cyrus and just delete deliver.db (and
deliver.db.NEW if existing) and start cyrus again.

Best,
Daniel
