We used the IMAP_EMPTYTRASH courier's feature to enforce our policy at login/logout time. That takes care for the active users, another cron job monthly (last sunday) takes care for the rest, it exists a performance penalty doing a stat call for every file on login/logout time but XFS + hw raid excell in that area. For the cron job the load is not a problem as that can be minimized too (in our case) with _good_ hardware raid storage. > I have never used IMP and I don't know too much about it. > I'm curious what time your user needs to open his folder > with 15,000+ messages?
