| Hi all. Got a question about fetchmail again. This one should be
| easy. I'm looking for the easiest way to get fetchmail to purge a mailbox
| for me. Here's what I'm after. First off, when my mail downloads, fetch
| has been told (via a config I have in sendmail) to leave mail on the server
| if the user has an invalid domain name. IE. From viruses, spam, etc. What
| I want it to do is to try to download all of the messages on the server,
| then, regardless if they succeed or fail, I want fetchmail to just nuke
| them off the server. Currently it only nukes mail that has been
| successfully delivered to the local computer. I want it to dump all of
| them so that it doesn't end up leaving all the rejected mail messages to
| pile up on the server, yet at the same time I don't want it to wipe all of
| the messages till it's tried to download each message at least
| once. Anyone got any good suggestions on how to setup fetch to do this?

if you are downloading for POP, try filtermail.
/usr/ports/mail/filtermail
