Did you ever get a reply? We have the same problem here, and we
need to hand-edit the annotations.db due to the folder types for
some shared folders switching from event to mail sometimes…

Is there another format which can do the round trip? After con-
verting to berkeley the server stopped working because it wanted
to use the berkeley DB from there on instead of its skiplist file
and had recorded that in the /var/lib/cyrus/db/log.0000000117 file…

Thanks in advance,
