lots of corruption of delived.db file

[Peter P. Benac]

I have seen it.  Just curious did you update your system lately.  I updated
mine yesterday for the new Timezone changes and have had trouble since then.
Nothing like waiting till the last minute, but I had to do it.

Regards,
Pete

cyrus recover by itself but the problem is that when the deliver.db grows it
take about one hour to recover and the delivery of mail is stopped.
Has someone already seen that and have an idea on how to solve the problem.

thank in advance for any help
