It's a IMAP-only flag, used when you 'delete' a message in imap. But messages are not actually deleted until you expunge the mailbox, but expunge only looks for messages that have deleted_flag=1 > Now, one thing I've noticed is, when running the dbmail-util commands, it > takes about one hour, to delete 196 mimeparts or 2000. I notice it does the full query twice, which shouldn't be necessary. Optimizing that would cut the overall time in half, still taking half an hour in your situation. Not much we can do to improve that. Cleaning up orphaned mimeparts is by definition a slow process. It requires a full index scan on the mimeparts table. -- ________________________________________________________________ Paul Stevens paul at nfg.nl NET FACILITIES GROUP GPG/PGP: 1024D/11F8CD31 The Netherlands________________________________http://www.nfg.nl _______________________________________________ Dbmail-dev mailing list Dbmail-dev@dbmail.org http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail-dev
