I'm working on a project to get data from Public Folders on an Exchange server via IMAP into mbx format on a UNIX box. (The reason is to do Bayesian classification on spam and ham in our SpamAssassin server).
I found the imap-utils and have scripted up mbxcvt to get the data over. However, I have not found any way with imap-utils (or any other way short of a full-blown IMAP mail client, which required human control) to delete these emails once I've transferred them. imapxfer would seem to remove them from the original mailbox, but only to go to another IMAP mailbox, not (as I need) to a simple text file. Does anyone have any suggestions? It would seem to be a simple thing to do, but searching through the imap archives and googling my butt off has thus far revealed little (and I'm an admin and tinkerer, not a hard core programmer, so my understanding of the imap-utils source code is spotty at best) thanks! johnS -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- For information about this mailing list, and its archives, see: http://www.washington.edu/imap/imap-list.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
