In my $HOST:/etc/cyrus.conf I have: EVENTS { # this is required checkpoint cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -c" period=30 # this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression, # Sieve or NNTP delprune cmd="cyr_expire -E 3 -X 0" at=0400 # this is only necessary if caching TLS sessions tlsprune cmd="tls_prune" at=0400 } So each morning at 4:00 AM local time the cyrus expire should run. My concern is ipurge removing *too many* messages, etc. Mike ---- 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
