It's back up and everything appears to be running just fine. ; That was the most stressful 24 hours I have had in years.  In the end all the problems boiled down to not knowing to put the -9 after killall.  Once imapd was gone I could run dbmail-util -by.

One strange thing though - when I run /etc/init.d/dbmail restart on each daemon it states "failed".  Can I no longer use init.d dbmail to restart or do was not replaced during the debian apt-get install?

Noted for future reference.  Had just been trying killall dbmail-imapd and then killall dbmail-lmtpd.

dbmail-util -by is still running. Hoping everything will start once it is finished.

The init script has not worked for me on deb etch using the
packages  
when shutting down or restarting services in versions 2.2.3
and 2.2.4.  
After 2.2.4 I modified the script with killalls without the
9 to do a  
reasonably safe shutdown of the services.
