    That&#39;s a reasonable size.&nbsp; Is the error happening on the source

    Try run<br /><br />
    cyr_dbtool /var/imap/annotations.db twoskip consistency<br /><br />
    to check the database.&nbsp; Replace &#39;twoskip&#39; with the correct=
 database
    type for your configuration, and the path to the annotations.db file
    with the correct file for your configuration.&nbsp; You&#39;ll probably=
 need
    to specify an absolute path for the database file.&nbsp; There&#39;s al=
so a
    repack command for cyr_dbtool, which may help.<br /><br /><blockquote c=

    You can, but you lose the annotations, so not ideal.<br /><br />
    Alternatively, you can try upgrading in-place, which may be
    simpler.&nbsp; Obviously you don&#39;t want to test it on your live sys=
tem,
    so test it first on a duplicate machine.&nbsp; I upgraded my system
    (about 60 users with some very large mailboxes) in-place and it
    worked fine for me, but that was some time ago.&nbsp; I went from 3.0 to
    3.2 to 3.4 etc.&nbsp;<br /><br />
