Cyrus does not have any inherent understanding of what the Trash folder is... it's just another IMAP folder. 'Deleted' in the IMAP sense refers to an email that has the '\Deleted' flag set. A subsequent EXPUNGE will remove the emails from user view altogether. Since the emails that are contained within the Trash folder probably do not have the '\Deleted' flag set, they will not be expunged automatically by Cyrus. You could use ipurge to automatically delete messages from your users' Trash folders. Adding something like this to the EVENTS section of your cyrus.conf should work (please test as a typo could lead to loss of data): purgetrash cmd="/usr/sbin/ipurge -f -d 14 */Trash" at=0301 Which purges all messages older than 14 days, in all users' Trash folders and runs every morning at 3:01am. See the man pages for ipurge and cyrus.conf for more details. -- Dan White ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
