[qmailtoaster] Trash being emptied for some users but not all
Greetings QMailers... I have a client who's hopping mad because his Trash folder is being cleaned out periodically he clearly does not want this to happen. He reports that this is happening on his system and a colleagues, but not everyone on the domain. I suspect his Thunderbird client is doing some kind of trash management... but these are all IMAP accounts, so Thunderbird shouldn't be worrying about folder sizes... should it? Any ideas -- or anyone else chased this ghost -- would be greatly appreciated.

I realize you said that this is only certain accounts in a domain, which doesn't make sense to me, but I figure it's worth checking. I don't see any setting in TBv3.1.8 for doing this. Is he perhaps using another IMAP client as well, such as Squirrelmail or phone? -- -Eric 'shubes' - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

RE: [qmailtoaster] Re: Trash being emptied for some users but not all
You're missing something here... Not sure what, but something's missing. He's either using another mail client to check via IMAP from home, or something... Is he checking mail from his phone? Perhaps that client has something set. Does he use Squirrelmail? I believe there's a setting in there that empties the trash when logging off. I believe Outlook or Outlook Express also has settings that empty the trash when logging off... Drill him about where he checks mail from... All of the places he checks from. Or, switch up, and talk to the colleague that has the same thing. You might get more information from him. I agree with the previous post about getting them to change their method of handling mail and not trashing mail they want, but sometimes that's easier said than done... If you can find the offending culprit that's deleting the trash, you might save yourself some heartache. The thing I've never liked about having clients use IMAP is, they then store Gig's of worthless mail on my server, versus their PC... I usually set up their clients so that the POP the mail, leave it on the server for 10 days, then remove it. That usually gives them enough time to get their mail at home/office/phone, and prevents years worth of their porn links from piling up on my server... Any, keep looking. You'll find they both have second mail clients somewhere that are deleting the trash.

You really should upgrade, as centos4's end of life is scheduled for 2/29/2012. You might want to wait for QMT to be ready for centos 6 as long as you're upgrading. You should do a fresh install regardless of whether you upgrade to 5 or 6. -- -Eric 'shubes' - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Trash being emptied for some users but not all
Michael, Your point about messages piling up on the server is valid -- except for two points: a) when they're using my server, they pay for storage, not numbers of accounts... more storage, more monthly cost (more income for the same infrastructure) b) when they're NOT using my server, they pay for management and don't want me talking to them about storage -- its their hardware -- but in that case, they're paying for /backup/ on their server... and again, they pay for storage... more storage = more income for the same infrastructure! I PUSH (hard) for IMAP e-mail access -- for business reasons (their business, not mine)... either my server or theirs is backed up... if there is an issue on IMAP, I can ALWAYS recover the data because I have it backed up! If it's pop and their system isn't backed up, then its lost and if they lose the entire PST (or Thunderbird database), they've lost everything... with IMAP, all the data protection that goes into the design of the server applies to the e-mail just as it does to Word Excel files... As for retraining this user, he's adamant that he shouldn't have to learn a new way of doing things... so I'm definitely at a point where I need to find out WHAT is making the files disappear... For everyone who's replied so far -- please keep trying! I'm hoping ONE of the big, smart heads out there will see SOMETHING that I'm missing... Thanks Dan On 8/22/2011 2:28 PM, Michael J.

RE: [qmailtoaster] Re: Trash being emptied for some users but not all
I agree with your points. I guess I should have been a little clearer. I was referring mainly to my ISP customers. I don't want to store their mail because I make so little off of their connectivity service (DSL or Dialup) and they don't pay for mail (accounts are included in the access), and with quota's broken, it can get to be a pain. J Luckily, most use Gmail/Yahoo/etc, so it's not as big of an issue as it used to be. These users also tend to be residential. For my business IT customers, yes, that's different, although most have an internal Exchange service, and I simply filter the mail, so none is stored on my end, and the backup occurs on their server. I still say look for him using another client somewhere.Phone, home, another PC somewhere.
