regardless of any value i give, it lists all the files in that directory. i tried from +10 to +250, nothing works. basically, its a maildir and i have mails from last year october till date. i want to give the user mails from feb onwards as mails older than feb are inconsenquential and hence, i want to delete files which are older than feb 1st 2003.
