You can run 'reconstruct -s', which is pretty fast, but still
detects the worst cases.

This will fix all your broken upgrades.

No - upgrades were all sorts of broken :(  I'm really sorry.  This
patch will get scrambled for 2.4.4.

(Note: I havne't written the cyrus.expunge fix yet - this is just to
make the rest of the upgrades go cleanly!)

https://github.com/brong/cyrus-imapd/tree/for244

Or just apply the attached patches (generated from that tree since
2.4.3 was released)

Patch number 4 is the one you care about, but the others are fine
to apply too.

Now - I'm going to look into cyrus.expunge handling magic for you.
