Hello,
Since exim itself is using bdb only for transient data, we just needed
to detect a db version change and delete the data if it happens.
However a common way to setup with cyrus-imap is to have axim access
cyrus' internal user databases. Which is why we try to keep exim at
the same db version as cyrus, usually.
