find evolution -name "mbox.*" -exec rm -f {} \;

Hi,

Issuing this command:  find evolution -name "mbox.*" -exec rm -f '{}' ';'

to prune indexing files in ~/evolution/local/(sub) folders results in:   
missing argument to 'exec'

As of yet, I don't know what the builtins are or how to see bash(1) for the 
bash builtin commands.

I'm pruning the indexing files before backing up evolution.  What is the 
missing argument?


TIA,

Celsun
