man cyr_expire (Administration système) - expire messages and duplicate delivery database entries
NAME
cyr_expire - expire messages and duplicate delivery database entries
SYNOPSIS
cyr_expire [ -C config-file ] -E days [ -v ]
DESCRIPTION
Cyr_expire
is used to expire messages and duplicate delivery database entries.
The expiration of messages is controlled by the
/vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire mailbox annotation which
specifies the age (in days) of messages in the given mailbox that
should be deleted. Any duplicate delivery database entries which
correspond to the mailbox are also deleted at the same frequency.
The value of the /vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire annotation is
inherited by all children of the given mailbox, so an entire mailbox
tree can be expired by seting a single annotation on the root of that
tree. If a mailbox does not have a
/vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire annotation set on it (or does not
inherit one), then no messages are expired from the mailbox.
Cyr_expire reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.
OPTIONS
- -C config-file
- Read configuration options from config-file.
- -E days
- Prune the duplicate database of entries older than days. This value is only used for entries which do not have a corresponding /vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire mailbox annotation.
- -v
- Enable verbose output.
FILES
- /etc/imapd.conf
