Hello, I'm running a default OpenSMTPD on OpenBSD 6.1 (and several previous versions of it before). I've noticed that OpenSMTPD creates two directories in /var/spool/smtpd/purge every time it is started but never deletes these directories when shutting down. This might be fine on an email server that's always up and running but this is on a laptop computer that's turned on and off several times a day... The result is that I have now hundreds of these empty directories in /var/sppol/smtpd/purge and just doing an "ls" in that directory is very noticeably slow as a result. I obviously can easily delete all these directories but it's kind of annoying to have to do that by hand every few months, so: - is there any special reason why OpenSMTPD doesn't clean up after itself when it shuts down? - out of curiosity, what are these folders for anyway? I've look at all the man pages related to OpenSMTPD and there's no explanation I could find for the purge directory anywhere...
