We use delayed expunge with a delay of 120 days. I was just playing with ipurge and it appears to 'physically' delete the messages rather than just marking messages as expunged. Is it possible to have ipurge just mark messages as expunged rather than removing them?
Looking at the man page I assume not. $ sudo -u cyrus /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/ipurge -s -X -f -d 365 user.adam.sent-mail Working on user.adam.sent-mail... total messages 713 total bytes 7683241 Deleted messages 0 Deleted bytes 0 Remaining messages 713 Remaining bytes 7683241 $ ls /var/spool/imap/a/user/adam/SPAM/ | wc -l 1703 $ sudo -u cyrus /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/ipurge -s -X -f -d 5 user.adam.SPAM Working on user.adam.SPAM... total messages 205 total bytes 6493756 Deleted messages 130 Deleted bytes 4143062 Remaining messages 75 Remaining bytes 2350694 $ ls /var/spool/imap/a/user/adam/SPAM/ | wc -l 1573 ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
