We have /var/amavis/tmp mounted in RAM, so I don't like to leave those
directories laying around for too long. I run a cron job every night to
clean up. You should be frightened by "rm -rf" in cron jobs, but this
can be run as your amavis user.
#!/bin/bash
# /var/amavis/tmp is mounted in RAM. Amavis/ClamAV sometimes leaves
# files in this directory, but our RAM is super important and we want
# to make sure that no space is wasted.
# In particular, these two are left when Amavis or ClamAV shuts down
# uncleanly. I do them individually because I like to be kind of
# careful when I'm rm -rf'ing.
find /var/amavis/tmp/ -mtime +7 \
-name 'amavis-*' \
-type d \
| xargs rm -rf \
2>/dev/null
find /var/amavis/tmp/ -mtime +7 \
-name 'clamav-*' \
| xargs rm -rf \
2>/dev/null
# This command removes any quarantined spam older than 7 days.
find /var/amavis/quarantine/spam/ -mtime +7 \
-type f \
-name '*.gz' \
| xargs rm \
2>/dev/null
# And quarantined viruses older than 30 days.
find /var/amavis/quarantine/virus/ -mtime +30 \
-type f \
| xargs rm \
2>/dev/null
