I am using sendmail.
Further investigation showed that sendmail's queue was huge due to an over quota account which gets a lot of mail. Every half hour sendmail with do its thing and the system would just go to an extreme high load. Sendmail would refuse connections for about a minute while the load came down.
The part that concerns me about Cyrus is that the above mentioned mail box
was not over quota. Nevertheless sendmail was not able to deliver a single message
there.
I am not sure if the message config/deliverdb/deliver-t.db: DB_INCOMPLETE: Cache flush was unable to complete
is associated with the mail box quota problem or not.
Thanks!

what mta are you using?
If sendmail, this has happened to me and it turned out to be the hoststat was
getting a connection refused/timedout error and then having to wait 30 minutes
before it would try again. In the meantime it was just immediately saying the
connection was down and queuing mails. I found by killing all sendmail
processes, restarting cyrus and sendmail and then purging the hoststat database
will fix this issue, until it happens again. I do not know why this happens and
if anyone else has input/insight I too would be interested. :)
