I don't think I dare risk it:
$ find . -name \*akonadi\* | wc
49 49 2665
$ find . -name \*akonadi\*dat | wc
13 13 901
How would I know which to delete and which to leave alone? No, it may be more
work to start again with a clean slate, but at least I can be confident of not
screwing anything up too badly.
