It works now.

Instead of "su cyrus -c " I su-ed to cyrus ... in there it worked for
deliver.db now.

# file delnew.db
delnew.db: Apple QuickTime movie (modified)

So the other 3 dbs seem to be already skiplist, right?

# file /var/lib/imap/*.db
/var/lib/imap/annotations.db:  Apple QuickTime movie (modified)
/var/lib/imap/deliver.db:      Berkeley DB (Btree, version 9, native
byte-order)
/var/lib/imap/mailboxes.db:    Apple QuickTime movie (modified)
/var/lib/imap/tls_sessions.db: Apple QuickTime movie (modified)

If these four dbs are all I have to look at, I assume I could stop
cyrus, replace deliver.db and try starting over?

Thanks so far, sorry for my detailled approach, I just want to do it
right ...
