RE: [IMail Forum] Adduser/Orphans

I would think that the easiest solution would be to add another line to you remove script. Something along the lines of (assumes domain.com is located at c:\imail\domain.com):   "echo y |del c:\imail\domain.com\john.doe\*.*" (sans quotes)   This should cleanout that folder. If you get a hold of deltree (i just noticed NT4 doesn't have it) You could use:    "echo y |deltree c:\imail\domain.com\john.doe"    and be rid of the whole directory.   Jacob -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Kris McElroy Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2002 12:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IMail Forum] Adduser/Orphans We are using Imail 6.06 with RODOPI Billing Software.  We use the Registry for storing user accounts.  The problem we are having is this:  When a user signs up say [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rodopi will FTP this script to the server (C:\Imail\adduser -h domain.com -u john.doe -n "" -P pass).  Which works all fine and dandy.  Now say john.doe wants to cancel his email account.  Rodopi will FTP this script to the server (C:\Imail\adduser -kill -u john.doe -h domain.com).  Now the problem is that lets say that he had email in his account and another person came along and wanted to signup for Email Access and the oddly picked the username john.doe?  So now when the script is FTP'd do the Imail Server it puts the new information in, but keeps the OLD john.doe directory structure, hence he gets email that was in the directory.  Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this with the command line interface?  We have some domains that have 300+ orphan accounts.       Thanks,     Kris McElroy [EMAIL PROTECTED]   Internet Systems Engineer Duracom, INC. www.duracom.net
