The same thing has happened here. Note, the client makes a Trash folder and provides a nice button to move things into it. Imagine if the client also made an Archive folder and had another button for that.

They're the kind of folks that routinely ask for "important mail we've deleted from their Trash folder" to be restored.

Re: delete messages from INBOX.Trash INBOX.Junk
Going this same direction... With our previous mail system, we used to chug through our users' Spam & Trash folders, and send them a weekly notification reminding them of the messages they had in these folders, and how many would be deleted in the next week. Anyone done something similar with Cyrus? -rob On Sep 20, 2007, at 05:21, Paul Dekkers wrote: > Hi, > > Vladi Lemurov wrote: >> Hello! >> Is there any way to delete old messages e.g. older than 30 days from >> INBOX.Trash and INBOX.Junk mailboxes of all users in a proper >> "cyrus-way"? >> > > You can use ipurge, and run it periodically from cyrus.conf.

We have for instance: purgetrashcmd="ipurge -d 14 -f user.%.Trash" at=0200 (and a couple of others for the spam folder for instance) to clear the Trash folder of users for messages over two weeks old... people tend to fill it up and never look at it again, this saves over 10G in our case :-) You can run ipurge from the commandline too, as user cyrus.

delete messages from INBOX.Trash INBOX.Junk
Hello!
Is there any way to delete old messages e.g. older than 30 days from
INBOX.Trash and INBOX.Junk mailboxes of all users in a proper "cyrus-way"?
Or should we use scripts with lines something like
"find ./ -regex "./[0-9]*\." -ctime +30 -exec rm {} \;"
and then rebuild the mailbox?
Thanks, Vladi.
