Purpose: Purge old mail items from Unix mailbox files Usage: purgmbox [-opts] mbox ... -fname - Purge messages From name -lfile - Log messages to 'file' -onn - Purge messages older than nn days -snn - Purge until mailbox smaller than nn kbytes -v ... - Verbose; Print summary. Repeat for more detail mbox - One or more mailbox files # find /var/mail -type f | xargs purgmbox -o60 -s500 Source in same place as purgmbox-1.0src.tgz, not a pkg_add. Simple. C. Edits in one pass. Looks at postmark only, so can't tell if a message was read or not. YMMV. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
