#!/bin/bash
for i in z_bak:7 slug:180 sbn:28 root:14 y_spam_definite:28 ; do
mydir=${i%:*}
mydays=${i#*:}
echo $mydir
echo $mydays
cd /home/sonia/Maildir/.${mydir}/new
if [ `pwd` = /home/sonia/Maildir/.${mydir}/new ] ; then
echo `pwd`
find . -type f -atime +${mydays} -print0 | xargs -0r rm
find . -type f -ctime +${mydays} -print0 | xargs -0r rm
find . -type f -mtime +${mydays} -print0 | xargs -0r rm
fi
cd /home/sonia/Maildir/.${mydir}/cur
if [ `pwd` = /home/sonia/Maildir/.${mydir}/cur ] ; then
echo `pwd`
find . -type f -atime +${mydays} -print0 | xargs -0r rm
