Maildir format - that means messages in individual files? If so, then you should be able to simply delete them with an appropriate "find" command, perhaps from a cron job (add a file to /etc/cron.daily). Try: find . -mtime 7 -exec ls -l {} \; Substitute whatever you like for the "ls -l". Jiri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
