Yes, thank you for the tip.  I’ve gone ahead and created a scheduled process to do just that.  This will cover any new customers that get added.

 

What we need is a feature in Imail to determine default web messaging preferences.  Or at the very least to change the preferences to something that would not cause a possible problem with mail flow in conjunction with other Imail features.  I’ll wait for this in a future update.

you can do that but this process still covers you.

For now I have created a default preferences.config file and copied it into each users folder with a script.  I also purged all of my users deleted mailboxes.  This should fix it.  I understand the next update will have a mailbox size indicator, so this will also help with their other folders.

setup a scheduled process with the following:

c:\imail\immsgexp.exe -td:\imail\ -d1 -mdeleted.mbx

this will delete all email except for the current day. Obviously you'll want to change the drive letters for your instance.

Regards,

Bill

Since upgrading to Imail 2006, web messaging has defaulted all my users
to keeping deleted message in the deleted items folder as apposed to
deleting them completely.  This has posed a very tedious and unfriendly
dilemma with users complaining that they are not receiving mail, due to
my use of mailbox restrictions.
 
Users are unaware that their deleted items folder is filling up until
they have not received mail for days on end.  They are then very upset
that they have missed mail and that they were not notified or given a
choice in how their mail was now deleting messages.
 
I need a means to mass change all my users web messaging preferences to
purge messages upon delete as to avoid these continual calls.  For now,
I suppose I'll have to script a solution.
 
Just making this issue known...
