Re: [vchkpw] delete old mails
i have the same idea with this kind problem where user can get email his latest email only all email that not filter nor move is automaticaly delete i think this need some changing on vpopmail code Can you elaborate? I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to say. I use a cron script with the 'find' command to find spam email older than 21 days and remove it automatically. It erases about 500 emails a day now. Regards, Andrew

Regards, Andrew at least paul said it in a way i could understand: he wants to delete _old_ mail in case new mail arrives but would be bounced if that _old_ mail wasn't deleted. old mail could be mail in the Maildir/cur directory. However, if you retrieve mail but do not delete it from your pop3 account, this could be for a reason, don't you think? If I'm on the road and just check my mail via web2mail.com (or something similar).. I might expect the very important job offer/customer request/. to still be in my pop3 account and not being deleted for some dumb 7mb spam. and even if that 7mb mail was more important than any old mail i still have in my pop3 account: the sender is notified, that i did not get it and may therefor send it again. Pail: if you really want to do this, i think you would have to alter vdelivermail.c yourself, as there is no patch, that i know of. -- Mit internetten Grüßen / Best Regards --- Justin Heesemannionium Technologies [EMAIL PROTECTED]www.ionium.org

[vchkpw] delete old mails
Hi all! One question concerning deletion on old mails! How do I accomplish the deletion of mails, when a user is at the end of his quotalimit? say a user has 10MB mailbox storage and is at 95% of his quota limit. A message arrives with 7MB attachments. Now I want vpopmail to kill all old messages, so that the 7MB mail can still be recieved! Thx for your answer Paul Tritscher
