"Expunge" comes from the MM cli
Hello Joseph,
You nailed it. Mine uses Purge. Purge is a common programming term so you
can bet that the reason they use that word is it's coming from the
programmers writing the email client. Expunge sounds more like a legal term
than anything to do with software and I'm surprised that it becam

Hello,
Okay, I am sure this is stupid question but how do you really delete messages.
When I delete messages in my email client and then log in to see the mailbox
through a web program I see that the message are marked as deleted but still
there.

Hi Bron,
Yes, it sounds like that's what I'm looking for: running expunge
periodically.
Now there's one slight problem here: I can't just run expunge as it is.
I have users who periodically need to undelete messages. I'd like
expunge to only act on messages older than X days, giving people t
Wesley,
I looked at ipurge but I find it also happily deletes messages that
weren't marked for deletion. It appears to delete everything older than
X days, regardless of that \Deleted flag mentioned in another reply.

The tool that is closest to the desired functionality is ipurge. In

I'll do some more checking then. My cyr_expire version doesn't even have
the -X option (I'm testing this on a system that has cyrus imap 2.2.13
as its recent version).

Hi Ken,
From the description it seems like cyr_expire will apply to every email
in a mailbox. I don't want to delete any regular emails other than the
ones already marked for deletion by an email client who is lacking a
decent purge feature.

I think that the cyr_expire command may be what you are searching
for.

Hi,
I am looking for a way to run a daily script on the Cyrus IMAP server
that processes every user's mail folders and deletes every message
marked for deletion older than X days.
I realize the proper way to do this is client-side and have the client
program purge/expunge the mailboxes periodi
This is the "delayed expunge" feature, added in 2.3. man imapd.conf,
page down to expunge_mode. It's a speed enhancement and has the side
effect of allowing sysadmin undelete/unexpunge without recourse to backups.
You should have something like this in cyrus.conf for garbage
collection. man cy

How can I specify to cyr_expire to use the internal date instead of the header

Am I the only one with that problem ?
