Is this for a personal system or an ISP/company/email-host? If person system: it's *trash*, don't store old stuff in it! If business, and you are telling users "Trash older than 180 days will be automatically deleted", you should use the IMAP protocol to do it. The mailing list for the imapd that you use would be the place to ask the proper way to do it. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA "this is how main street of town looked back in 1985 when I was of age of those girls" http://www.angelfire.com/extreme4/kiddofspeed/page11.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
