Total messages 9214 Total bytes 191140555 Deleted messages 1 Deleted bytes 2250912 Remaining messages 9213 Remaining bytes 188889643 So i see it markin as /Deleted works. Access by imap client gives the number 9213. But in the filesystem there are many more files in the spam folder: 9213 which can be 'seen' and many more which are marked as /Deleted. The command "/usr/sbin/cyrus expire -E 4 -D 28 -X 28" should Expunge (which is, what i suppose, removing from filesystem) the /Deleted marked files. Am i wrong? regards Horst -- Horst Häberlen Kirchenstr. 16 74639 Zweiflingen ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
