Here is the script we use:
---------------------------------------------------------
'this script moves imail log files from spool to temp.
'it could be modified to delete the files as well with
'little modification.
'usage is cscript movemxlg.vbs
'Written by John Dobbin - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
'version 2 20030603
'set variables
dim logdate
dim outmonth
dim outdate
dim yestdate
dim logpath
dim archpath
dim logname
' get yesterdays date and format it mmdd
yestdate = Now-1
outday = day(yestdate)
outmonth = month(yestdate)
if outday < 10 then
logdate = (outmonth & "0" & outday)
else
logdate = (outmonth & outday)
end if
' set up log paths and names
logpath = "G:\Imailspool\"
archpath = "F:\TempLogs"
logtxt = "*" & logdate & ".txt"
loglog = "w*" & logdate & ".log"
' move yesterdays log to archive - still needs error checking
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
objFSO.MoveFile logpath & logtxt , archpath
objFSO.MoveFile logpath & loglog , archpath
-------------------------------------------------------------
We then manage the temp area instead of keeping all the crap in the spool
directory.
