The files are simple Berkeley-DB files. Here is a small Perl snippet, maybe you
can use this as a starting point.

~~~ .pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use DB_File;

tie my %db, DB_File => 'ratelimit'
    or die $!;


while (my ($k, $v) = each %db) {
    print "$k: $v\n";
}
~~~


For occasional use, the exim_fixdb tool should be sufficient.
