ipurge - Cyrus IMAP documentation
Delete mail from IMAP mailbox or partition based on age or size
ipurge [ -f ] [ -C config-file ] [ -x ] [ -X ] [ -i ] [ -s ] [ -o ] [ -n ] [ -v ]
[ -d days | -b bytes | -k Kbytes | -m Mbytes ]
[ mailbox-pattern... ]
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.
ipurge reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.
