similar to: Deleting messages from MailDir

While running dovecot on debian etch using version 1.0.rc15-2etch3, i wonder the following: If i read the config files correctly, dovecot seems to have no equivalent of courier's IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:7 setting. Therefore, i wrote a script that dives into the user's directories and their maildirs. It looks like this: ============================================= #!/bin/bash for pad1

Hi all, I found an article (with python script) on how to clean up Maildir folder for old email messages from http://www.ducea.com/2006/11/25/cleanup-maildir-folders-archive-delete-old-mails/ . As I understand, this will be run by each user after login. How can I make this runs at least once a month and delete all users message with age more than one month for example using crontab? I am using

Hi ALL... I want to know if the files in /Maildir/cur & /Maildir/.Sent are modified by dovecot. I have a script which calculates the age of the mail files. I think that if they are continuously modified by dovecot I won't be able to calculate the age of the files. Can Anyone plz advise on this.... Thanks CoolAtt

Hi, We use an rsync (rrsync, to be precise) based back-up solution. Every so often an iSCSI based file-system gets brought up and left connected for the night. After a mount event rsync will back that volume up, including server TB of data that haven't been modified, but the ctime is newer than the mtime. Is there a way to stop this behaviour? Cheers, Andrej

Greetings all- I am conducting security testing on a device that uses Linux 2.4 with ext3. I am testing secure overwrite of remnant data in temporary files, but have run into a real good stumpper in the way Ext allocates data blocks. I've got 10 yrs of *NIX behind me, several with Linux, and this has really got me perplexed as I can't find any documentation explaining the subject

Hi there, i still have a weird problem with Powerpoint an Excel files stored on a Samba share. Only read on if you -use a samba share as MULTI-user file repository (no force_user etc.) -where multiple, different users share files in common directories -the modification time of a file is of any relevance to you. (seems like lots of folks don?t bother access rights or keep their information

Hello, We have a 3-node cluster setup with ocfs2. Since friday one of the nodes went down and would not become clustermember after a reboot because it was unable to write to the ocfs2 filesystem. Message: no space left on device. There is plenty of diskspace though. No problem whatsoever to create a file / directory on the filesystem using one of the other nodes. Today one of the remaining

Hi, This is probably a newbie question, but here goes. I am using samba to mount some windows box's hard drives to a linux box for the purpose of doing backups on the windows boxes. This is done late at night and I am SURE that no one is using the windows boxes.... While backing up I often see tar complain as follows: "tar: IssRating/C4dll.dll: file changed as we read it" or

I'm trying to clone a volume in a storage pool and I'm following the steps described here: http://libvirt.org/docs/libvirt-appdev-guide-python/en-US/html/libvirt_application_development_guide_using_python-Storage_Pools-Cloning.html My code looks like: destXML = """ <volume>

If you use mtime, then it will be deleted "ndays" after the last modification date on the file -- NOT the time the file was moved into the recycle bin. If you use ctime - that

I have a large mail backup folder backup at backup.invalid; I'm cleaning up daily like this: infimum=`date -d "-4 day" +"%Y-%m-%d"` doveadm expunge -u backup at backup.invalid mailbox INBOX SAVEDBEFORE $infimum doveadm purge -u backup at backup.invalid yet I see this: # find attachments/ -type f -ctime +5 | wc -l 7522 # find attachments/ -type f | wc -l 127579 # find

Hi, I just want some clarification on how Dovecot's IMAP assigns UIDs when it picks files from the "new" directory of a Maildir. What I am observing is that only ctime has a role to play in it. For example if there are two files in "new", a.msg & z.msg. Even when a.msg has lower mtime than z.msg and "a" comes before "z" alphabetically, dovecot

Hi, Recently I noticed file.copy() would discard the file mode information.
