I have this very same problem. It began after I had some minor DB corruption problems. The db_recover util got me out of trouble but the log files are no longer being deleted.
I suspect deleting /var/imap/db/* and dumping the mailboxes.db to a text file and re-importing it with ctl_mboxlist might fix things up. ? Perhaps someone else will let us know if this is a good idea or not...

Hello, i have a lot of log files in my Cyrus V2.1.3 db directory --> every day 2 log files with approx. 1Mb. It takes about 2h 30 min after i restarted the Cyrus to work properly, because after the restart he´s doing a database recovery! The only workaround i found, was to delete all files from the db directory and restart the Cyrus, but his is a workaround and not a solution! :-( cyrus.log-20040422.gz:Apr 21 00:35:52 mail ctl_cyrusdb[30951]: recovering cyrus databases cyrus.log-20040422.gz:Apr 21 00:35:52 mail ctl_cyrusdb[30951]: done recovering cyrus databases cyrus.log-20040422.gz:Apr 21 00:35:52 mail ctl_deliver[30952]: DBERROR db4: Recovery function for LSN 1 202 failed cyrus.log-20040422.gz:Apr 21 02:50:22 mail ctl_cyrusdb[776]: recovering cyrus databases cyrus.log-20040422.gz:Apr 21 02:50:23 mail ctl_cyrusdb[776]: DBERROR db4: Recovery function for LSN 1 202 failed cyrus.log-20040422.gz:Apr 21 02:50:23 mail ctl_deliver[780]: DBERROR db4: Recovery function for LSN 1 202 failed I also have an older Cyrus (V.2.0.16), which doess not have this problem.
