Yeah - noticed the callout was 600 megs before I deleted it. Is there
any way to self limit that or maybe write a script to clear it out once
a week or so?
It may well be a sparse file - so nowhere near 600MB on disk. Use "ls
-s" to show the disk blocks in use.
If your distribution uses a single file db file (ie theres one file per
db in the directory - maybe plus a .lockfile one) then you can just
delete them every so often. This definitely reclaims the disk space
whereas using some form of db tidy such as exim_tidydb may not actually
return disk space.
Remember they are hints - thats why you can put them on a RAMDISK in the
first place.

Yeah - I think I'll nuke it every saturday night.
