    Hi everyone,

    I've discovered these two in my cyrus imapd logs:

    IOERROR: mapping cache file for user.root: Value too large for defined
    data type
    FATAL: failed to mmap cache file

    That mailbox is so full that I can't even open it with IMAP anymore:

    * OK smtp Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.12 server ready
    . login root *******
    . select INBOX
    * BYE Fatal error: failed to mmap cache file
    Connection to localhost closed by foreign host.

    Any suggestions on a proper way of cleaning this up?

    # du -hks /var/spool/imap/user/root
    9.1G

    This all happened because mail for postmaster (which we -do- read,
    still) turned out to be also sent to root.

    The mailserver runs fine for the other users.

    Regards, Paul Boven.
