I have POP/IMAP/SMTP on a seperate box from the spamassassin/amavis

shared-maildir where users deposit spam that slipped through, tar it
up, and move it to the other box, where yet another script will feed
it to bayes.
Most everything works, except for the cleanup! For the life of me, I
can't manage to not screw this step up. heh.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin $ cat clear_up_spam.sh

Ok, so if I do a ls /home/vmail/shared-maildirs/Spamdrop/.Incoming/cur
then I see all the files in the directory.
If I run this script as it is, i get stuff like this:
rm: cannot remove

if I do "cd /home/vmail/shared-maildirs/Spamdrop/.Incoming/cur" and
then "for i in `ls`; do sudo rm $i; done it works just fine. I just
can't manage to delete the files *without* actually sitting there and
manually going into the directory and deleting them. (I know the "for,
do" loop is probably slow but I also screw up xargs every time I try
to use it.)
Most everyone on here could probably beat me at shell scripting and
Perl, and this is totally spamassassin stuff related, so I'm asking..
help me! :)

Hi,
for i in `ls /home/vmail/shared-maildirs/Spamdrop/.Incoming/cur`; do
sudo rm /home/vmail/shared-maildirs/Spamdrop/.Incoming/cur/$i; done
Although imapsalearn is easier.
Regards,
Rick
