NAME

       ipurge - Cyrus IMAP documentation

       Delete mail from IMAP mailbox or partition based on age or size

SYNOPSIS

       ipurge [ -f ] [ -C config-file ] [ -x ] [ -M ] [ -X ] [ -i ] [ -s ] [ -o ] [ -n ] [ -v ]
               [ -d days | -b bytes | -k Kbytes | -m Mbytes ]
               [ mailbox-pattern... ]

DESCRIPTION

       ipurge  deletes messages from the mailbox(es) specified by Imailbox-pattern that are older
       or larger than specified by the -d, -b, -k or -m options.  If no mailbox-pattern is given,
       ipurge  works  on all mailboxes.  If the -x option is given, the message age and size MUST
       match exactly those specified by -d, -b, -k or -m.  The are  no  default  values,  and  at
       least one of -d, -b, -k or -m MUST be specified.

       Ipurge  by  default  only  deletes  mail  below  shared folders, which means that mails in
       mailbox(es) below INBOX.* and user.* stay untouched. Use the option -f to also delete mail
       in mailbox(es) below these folders. Use the -M option to not recurse into the mailboxes.

       ipurge  reads  its  configuration  options  out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified
       otherwise by -C.

OPTIONS

       -C config-file
              Use  the  specified  configuration  file  config-file  rather  than   the   default
              imapd.conf(5).

       -f     Force ipurge to examine mailboxes below INBOX.* and user.*.

       -d days
              Age of message in days.

       -b bytes
              Size of message in bytes.

       -k Kbytes
              Size of message in Kbytes (2^10 bytes).

       -m Mbytes
              Size of message in Mbytes (2^20 bytes).

       -x     Perform an exact match on age or size (instead of older or larger).

       -X     Use delivery time instead of Date: header for date matches.

       -i     Invert match logic: -x means not equal, date is for newer, size is for smaller.

       -s     Skip over messages that have the \Flagged flag set.

       -o     Only purge messages that have the \Deleted flag set.

       -n     Only print messages that would be deleted (dry run).

       -v     Enable verbose output/logging.
