The output is fine - BUT, here's the problem.  Cyrus has a hard limit
of 128 "user flags" per mailbox, and they're not recyclable.  Once
you have created that many flags, you're stuck - you can't create any
more.

If that user is creating more in Thunderbird, it's probably only
storing them locally and failing to upload them to the server - which
is probably only working by accident and not how it's designed to work.

What a mess!

The only solution I can offer for now is "use fewer tags".  To clean
them out, you can create a new empty folder and copy the messages
across.  That works for everything other than INBOX.  For INBOX it's
harder - you pretty much need to create a new folder, copy the messages
into it, delete the cyrus.header file for the INBOX and reconstruct,
then copy the messages back.  Ouch.

Bron ( that's assuming most of these tags were used in the past, but are
       not on any existing messages )
