    The database contains message-IDs of already delivered messages. It
    is used to suppress duplicate messages to the same users. Removing
    the database may allow some (small) number of duplicates to be
    delivered. You should have a line like:

    EVENTS {
             # expire messages and deliver.db entries
             delprune cmd="cyr_expire -E 1" at=0300
    }

    in your cyrus.conf file. This ought to keep deliver.db from growing
    out of bounds. If deliver.db has become corrupt, simply deleting it
    is a good plan.
