Upgrading from F42 to F43, my Cyrus IMAP system seems to have lost
the mailboxes.db file. That file and both backup files are identical
and essentially empty. Files from several years ago are also the same
though I can't remember what should have been in those old files.

 (. = /var/lib/imap/)
 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 336 Jan 13 21:01 ./db.backup1/mailboxes.db
 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 336 Jan 13 20:31 ./db.backup2/mailboxes.db
 -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 336 Jan 12 22:31 ./mailboxes.db

I have six directories under Maildir which correspond to mail folders.
I also have Maildir/.INBOX but that seems to be an old mailbox format
simple file, not a directory. Running "reconstruct -r" does not seem
to have changed the mailboxes.db file, though the time stamp updated.
Trying to access mail with an Android client gets the error, "INBOX
not found", and none of the other folders are visible.

I'm not looking to fix a bug. I'm not sure there is one. But I'd sure
like to find a way to recover.
