The expire database is empty, so it has nothing to do. Expire plugin
updates the database while messages are being saved/copied to the expire
mailboxes.
So if I understand correctly (obviously not *sigh*) :-)
I have Trash and Spam defined as expire databases, I sent a number of
messages, and then deleted them. They were then in Trash. I manually
moved a bunch of messages to Spam as well. The Spam messages were >
14 days old.
I then reran
dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool
I still get no events in /var/log/messages, and my Spam messages from
Jan 22 are still there. On the bright side I do have an expire.db
file now with data in it, tho I can't quite figure out what makes it update.
shouldn't the messages > 14 days old (the date I have set in.conf) go away?
Aha. So if I run it with --test I get
# dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool --test
Info: test...@example.com/Trash: stop, expire time in future: Sat Feb
28 02:26:38 2009
That mean it's working? (and if so why are my messages from 1/22
still there when I run it without --test?)
Thx!
