I have some users where I'd like to expunge their mail at different times. For example, I may have some users who I want to expunge everything from every folder at 30 days. Others where I'd like to expunge everything at 90 days. And still others where I only want to expunge mail from the Trash and Junk folders, and nowhere else. Is there a way to do some sort of lookup for this? Or

I'm trying to setup per user '+spam' delivery from amavis tags, so that each user gets any mails tagged as spam to 'spam' Maildir via +spam Dovecot lmtp delivery. after say 7 days I want to delete all spams older than 7 days, if I simply delete mail files from the file system, is that a 'bad thing' ? what is a proper way to do that, and scripts ? for

Hello This command doveadm expunge -u "user at domain" mailbox ".namespace/*" savedbefore 7d writes these messages to std.error doveadm(user at domain): Info: expunge: box=.namespace/INBOX, uid=5932, msgid=<E1Puxwf-0001fD-Si at hostname>, size=1824 doveadm(user at domain): Info: expunge: box=.namespace/INBOX, uid=5933, msgid=<E1Puy0N-0001fI-No at hostname>,

Hi all, Maybe someone here can help me with this problem, not sure if this is a configuration issue or an actual bug. my daily cron job says: #!/bin/sh doveadm expunge -A mailbox Junk savedbefore 14d doveadm expunge -A mailbox Trash savedbefore 30d doveadm expunge -A mailbox "Trash.*" savedbefore 30d But it hasn't been deleting any messages in a long time, I'm not sure when

I am having trouble scaling some regular dovecot cleanup operations on our servers. On a daily basis, I'm wanting to do this on each server, which contains its own isolated set of user storage: /usr/bin/doveadm expunge -A mailbox Trash* savedbefore 21d /usr/bin/doveadm expunge -A mailbox Spam savedbefore 7d /usr/bin/doveadm expunge -A mailbox Sent savedbefore 120d but these are a very

> Yes, after an upgrade works fine. Hello, Unfortunately this issue hits again.

Well, not for me. doveadm search -u user at domain ALL savedbefore 2d -- returns some messages doveadm expunge -u user at domain mailbox '*' savedbefore 2d -- nothing shown, but no error doveadm

Subject: Different user messages clustered around the same date.saved value After updating dovecot to 2.1.3, I can now use "doveadm expunge -A ..." to iterate through all user trash folders and expunge old messages. However, I noticed a strange thing: querying what would have been deleted doveadm -ftab fetch -A "date.saved" mailbox Trash savedbefore 7d showed many

> doveadm expunge -u <user> mailbox '*' savedbefore 30d That doesn't work for me either. The command is accepted, but the messages are not expunged. I guess my search/fetch will just have to return the mailbox name, in addition to other fields, and then I'll need to loop through the mailbox names and perform multiple expunges for each user. I understand the desire to

Hello Few questions regarding Doveadm-Expunge. 1. I have lazy expunge configure with this name space: .EXPUNGED Storage type: mdbox doveadm -Dv expunge -u user at domain mailbox ".EXPUNGED/*" savedbefore 7d I get some interesting outputs. doveadm(user at domain): Debug: expunge: box=.EXPUNGED/INBOX/mon uid=791 doveadm(user at domain): Debug: expunge: box=.EXPUNGED/INBOX/mon

Hi, Why did my 'doveadm expunge' command not clear the Trash out of a mailbox? The oldest messages was put into the Trash on the 26th June 2018 as shown in the file timestamp. -rw------- 1 vmail mail 33056 Jun 26 16:46 1530031582.M768773P18242.mx10,S=33056,W=33510:2,RS # doveadm -D expunge -u testuser at example.org mailbox Trash savedbefore 2d Debug: Loading modules from

Evidently, the 'doveadm expunge' command requires a "mailbox" to be defined in the search string. But is there a way tell it all mailboxes for a user? For example, something like: doveadm expunge -u user at domain mailbox ALL savedbefore 30d Thanks, Michael

Hi, with the latest dovecot-ee version (dovecot-ee-2.2.26.1-10) if I run ?doveadm expunge -A mailbox Spam savedbefore 30d? dovecot an error: doveadm: Error: dict-client: Commit failed: Dict server timeout: No input for 1916.209 secs (1 commands pending, oldest sent 0.000 secs ago: C1) (reply took 0.000 secs) doveadm: Error: expire: Dictionary commit failed Probably also "doveadm quota

Expire plugin / expire-tool seems annoyingly inflexible currently, so I was thinking about a more generic redesign: The expire plugin keeps track of the oldest message in configured mailboxes. Its only configuration is the list of tracked mailboxes. There's no configuration like what the expire timeouts are or anything. There will be a new doveadm command: doveadm expunge [-u user | -A]

When using autoexpunge = 14 days in, for example. The trash of junk folders, does that physically remove the messages from disk or simply mark them to be removed and some other action needs to be taken? I ask because my mail server crapped out today and I discovered a Junk folder with 490,000 messages in it, and the sa-spamd and mariadb processes died a horrible death. Haven't had time to
