We need to clean certain mails from a mailbox. Specifically we are
trying to clean mails older than 30 days. So we execute (as cyrus)
this command:
ipurge -d 30 username
It returns almost inmediately but nothing happens and the mails remain
there. We didn't use -f flag because we were affraid of deleting all
mailboxes.
Thanks in advance
Have you tried using "ipurge -d 30 user.username"?
Whoops, the manpage says:
Ipurge by default only deletes mail below shared folders, which
means that mails in mailbox(es) below INBOX.* and user.* stay
untouched. Use the option -f to also delete mail in mailbox(es)
below these folders.
So you'll have to use the -f option.
