Management should get rid of any software that accepts and then loses
mail.  That's a gross violation of Internet standards and polite
behavior.  Tell them DFS said so. :-)

That being said, just write some Perl code that copies ./INPUTMSG into
a convenient directory.  Use the $QueueID variable to generate a unique
filename for each message.  And have a cron job that goes through and
deletes anything older than 3 days.

Then get rid of the Exchange machine.

David.
