cyrus imap failure


Hi all,

I'm running a mail server with cyrus imap and postfix. I've had a bit of a disaster where a runaway process, not related to email, filled my root directory. I've take care of that and got most of the space back but now I'm not receiving email and maillog is reporting this:

Oct 18 14:55:53 pelican master[3213]: service lmtpunix pid 32764 in READY state: terminated abnormally
Oct 18 14:55:53 pelican master[32765]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/lmtpd

We are not receiving email but can send OK. I've had to reconstruct mail boxes before but nothing like this! Any idea how to repair this mess? I'm running Centos6.

Thanks!
