Disclaimer: not a personal attack, critic lang po I dont think its up to a sysadmin to prune chainmails from the users. It IS the users PERSONAL email, right? Provided that you restrict their quotas, bahala na sila kung anong gawin nila sa kanilang space.

I have a 40GB HDD mounted as /home. It is used for holding emails for about 100+ users. One of the occasional tasks I do with this is to prune it out of unwanted emails, like chain letters. I usually run something like: find -size +500k -print0 | xargs -0 grep -H "search string" to search the Maildir mailboxes for a certain subject. The disk is about 98% full, and running the about line takes time for one search. I was wondering if there's a better way to search. Or if I should be using a different fs that would make searches faster. Btw, I'm using the xfs filesystem. --- mike t. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
