Thanks Ken for your quick reply. I tried the following:
./ipurge -f -d 3 user.loadtest32 usage: ./ipurge [-f] [-C <alt_config>] [-x] {-d days &| -b bytes|-k Kbytes|-m Mbytes} [mboxpattern1 ... [mboxpatternN]] there are no defaults and at least one of -d, -b, -k, -m must be specified if no mboxpattern is given ./ipurge works on all mailboxes -x specifies an exact match for days or size -f force also to delete mail below user.* and INBOX.* It looks to me "ipurge" does not see the arguments that I provided. I checked impad.log and messges, there is no error message. I don't know how to get it working.
