Did I get that right? What I did: -- 1. -- binky:/var/imap/db # /etc/init.d/cyrus-imapd stop -- 2. -- binky:/var/imap/db # du -s /var/imap/ 11510 /var/imap binky:/var/imap/db # du -s /var/spool/imap/ 6175 /var/spool/imap binky:/var/imap/db # l total 14797 drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 185 Jan 30 18:55 ./ drwxr-x--- 11 cyrus mail 331 Jan 24 11:47 ../ -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 8192 Jan 30 16:27 __db.001 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 11550720 Jan 30 16:27 __db.002 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 98304 Jan 30 16:27 __db.003 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 270336 Jan 30 16:27 __db.004 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 24576 Jan 30 16:27 __db.005 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 3595221 Jan 30 18:55 log.0000000001 Yup, same situation. -- 3. -- binky:/var/imap/db # db_archive -s deliver.db mailboxes.db tls_sessions.db So /var/imap/db/* are obsolete files, right? Let's see... -- 4. -- binky:/var/imap/db # rm * binky:/var/imap/db # l total 1 drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 35 Jan 30 18:58 ./ drwxr-x--- 11 cyrus mail 331 Jan 24 11:47 ../ -- 5. -- binky:/var/imap/db # /etc/init.d/cyrus-imapd start Initializing Cyrus IMAPD: done -- 6. -- binky:/var/imap/db # l total 11161 drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 185 Jan 30 18:58 ./ drwxr-x--- 11 cyrus mail 331 Jan 24 11:47 ../ -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 8192 Jan 30 18:58 __db.001 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 11550720 Jan 30 18:58 __db.002 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 98304 Jan 30 18:58 __db.003 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 270336 Jan 30 18:58 __db.004 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 24576 Jan 30 18:58 __db.005 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 333 Jan 30 18:58 log.0000000001 I really did not win much space here, but at least the log file has gone. -- 7. -- binky:/var/imap/db # db_archive -s deliver.db tls_sessions.db Why is it no longer necessary to back up mailboxes.db? At least all IMAP folders and messages seem to be there... Olaf
