No, it just says:

The mailboxes database should be dumped before the option is changed,
removed, and then undumped after changing the option.

Which kinda sucks really.  But the M I'm pasting from there is the

I'm not sure with this one - I've never got into this state.  I
suspect the \Noselect is due to the broken mboxlist sort though.
