I remember seeing a similar problem someone had with an upgrade to
2.3.x in this list but I can't find it in the archives (or I'm
mistaken).
I had this problem.
I also had to reconstruct to make 2.3.x happy. It was probably because
some mailboxes had some garbage in them; for example, the cyrus.index
size of a mailbox triggering this error changed (shrank) after the
reconstruct.
I don't know if I had garbage in those files. But if I had, it was in
all mailboxes, not just a few.
I once upgraded such a system from 2.2.12 to 2.3.1 and I didn't
have this problem then. Actually, the whole story is a bit more bizarre.
This system had the following upgrade path:
2.2.12 -> 2.3.1 -> 2.2.12 (yes, back to 2.2.12) -> 2.3.3
I only had this problem in the last step (2.2.12 -> 2.3.3).
The mailbox code is only written to upgrade formats, not downgrade them.
I'm guessing that in the last step, the 2.3.3 code is seeing some
"half" upgraded cyrus.index and isn't happy about it.
