NAME

cleanque - send warnings and return expired mail

SYNOPSIS

cleanque [ -w ]

DESCRIPTION

Cleanque removes extraneous files from the tmp and msg subdirectories of the MMDF "home queue" directory. It also sends warnings for mail which has not been fully delivered after "warntime" hours following submission. Finally, it returns mail which has not been fully delivered after "failtime" hours after submission. "Warntime" and "failtime" are defined in MMDF's conf.c file (or set in the runtime tailor file).

Generally, cleanque should be run by cron, once a day, but may be run at any time to free up space.

The optional argument, -w, can be used if you are running cleanque manually and want to see what the program is doing.

BUGS

Cleanque should also remove extraneous files from the individual queues (q.* subdirectories).
