Hi,

Well, it is correct but it would put a *lot* of stress on the database. The 'f' option checks the integrity of the table structures and fixes problems it encounters - normally it doesn't find any problems at all. Running it once a day should be more than enough; running it hourly will cost you a lot of resources. The 'c' option is only effective on postgresql systems, it does a VACUUM on the tables. Interval needed for this depends a little on your actual configuration, running it every hour is a frequently used setting.

regards roel

Roel,

Its running hourly with this command:

/usr/sbin/dbmail-maintenance -cfpd >> /dev/null 2>&1

Is it correct?

I create a script in /etc/cron.hourly to do this job for me.

: Hi Nathaniel,
:
: do you run dbmail-maintenance? Messages aren't actually deleted when
: you delete them with POP/IMAP commands; instead they are stored with
: STATUS field set to '1'. Running dbmail-maintenance with the '-d'
: option changes this value to '2'; running it with the '-d' option will
: delete all messages with status '2' from the database. So running
: dbmail-maintenance -dp twice should clean up your entire database.
