Hi, This isn´t a question strictly related to Fedora, even while I run Fedora 11. I´m asking this here because the likelihood of someone knowing the answer is greater here than in a web forum. The problem is this:I need to calculate what kind of messages are using the most space in an IMAP account, now full with 7 gigs of stuff. I´d like to keep most of the email on-line, I don´t want to bulk-erase it, but I want to build a script that: -downloads all message headers (not full body, only subject-date-from-to) -compiles a statistic that shows for instance: -messages on the sent folder take up 2.5 Gigabytes" -messages on the Inbox take 4.4 Gb -Messages on the draft folder take 0.1 Gb And then compiles statistics, adding up message sizes on messages sent to the same destination address (ie mailing lists) So I can know that 1.5 gigs are emails to fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx 0.5 gigs are mails to ffmpeg-devel 0.3 gigs are mails to mplayer-issues, and so on The idea of this is to know which messages make more sense to delete to regain the most possible space. In other words, I´m looking for some sort of data-mining an IMAP4 mailbox on a remote server, based on message size, sender and destination address. Thoughts? Comments? Thanks...
