    I would like to change from using

    mboxlist_db: berkeley

    to

    mboxlist_db: skiplist

    I am reasonably confident that I should close down cyrus. Then, as the cyrus
    user, run

      ctl_mboxlist -d > /tmp/mboxlist.txt

    then rename /CONFDIR/mailboxes.db to mailboxes.berkely,

    then edit /etc/imapd.conf to change mboxlist_db to skiplist,

    then, as the cyrus user, run

      ctl_mboxlist -u < /tmp/mboxlist.txt

    to generate the skiplist vesion of /CONFDIR/mailboxes.db

    However, I am not sure about a couple of other things:

    Presumably I should rename /CONFDIR/db.backup1 and /CONFDIR/db.backup2 so that
    there is a clean start with skiplist?

    What about /CONFDIR/db and the files in there? What are they for?

    I need to be VERY VERY cautious about this change because of the dire
    consequences to our service if things go wrong! Advice will be most welcome.

    Phil.
