In the words of James Bond: "That explains the humming!"

Every email message that previously resided under /var/spool/cyrus/mail
has passed away, kicked the (bit) bucket, bought the box condo, are
ex-messages etc.

Hm... no they didn't.  But they do have a different structure.

What previously was mail/s/user/sb/ is now mail/u/s/user/sb/

Phew!

And my restored mailbox.db probably points to the old structure...?  So
how to I create one that points to the new structure?

Ah, the madness! the madness!

google haven't found me anything on this.  Perhaps I have to study the
emails more closely...
