Another (simpler) option find /home/*/Maildir/.Trash/cur/ -type f -ctime +7 -delete leaves intact recently (last week) deleted messages.
Maybe I'm just really confused... ...but isn't that accomplished by the following setting in etc/imapd? IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:7
command mentioned above (whis
-print instead of -delete) it reveals hundreds of messages in users' Trash
folders.
Yes, just as you should also see them when running it (the -print version) after the command you suggested above (the -delete version).
Both the IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:7 setting, and the -delete version of your find command should leave the same number of messages in the folder -- if I understand how the IMAP_EMPTYTRASH setting works, that is.
(I suppose I could be misunderstanding what it does. But I don't think I am.)
AFAIU this setting just disables Trash purging.That also seems to be simple enough with this setting: IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:0
Well, I certainly wouldn't expect it to (did I miss the docs saying that somewhere though? I wouldn't doubt it since I've only taken a cursory look around)... because the *obvious* way to disable Trash purging would be this:
IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=
...which quite clearly would say (to me at least) that no folders (of any name) should be emptied.
Whereas, I would certainly *expect* the setting:
IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:0
...to empty the entire contents of the Trash folder at logout. (i.e. if 1 = "1 day", then 0 = "0 days" or "immediately").
Sam...? Does it not work that way? -- If not, then may I suggest that perhaps it should?
