[Michael's script snipped]
Another example (which I did not author):
#!/bin/sh
#
# Periodically clean up amavis/tmp and virusmails
AMAVISD_TMP_DIR="/var/amavis/tmp"
if [ -d $AMAVISD_TMP_DIR ]; then
cd $AMAVISD_TMP_DIR
find $AMAVISD_TMP_DIR -type d -atime +30 -exec rm -r {} \;
find $AMAVISD_TMP_DIR -type f -atime +30 -exec rm -r {} \;
fi
AMAVISD_VIR_DIR="/var/virusmails"
if [ -d $AMAVISD_VIR_DIR ]; then
cd $AMAVISD_VIR_DIR
find $AMAVISD_VIR_DIR -type d -atime +30 -exec rm -r {} \;
find $AMAVISD_VIR_DIR -type f -atime +30 -exec rm -r {} \;
fi
