For incoming mail the root user is aliased, but mail sent from cron via mutt is saved in root's home folder (was in /root/sent but I did get mutt to save it in /root/Maildir/.Sent/ instead. I don't see anyway to change this, so I was hoping to expire the mail via doveadm. -- My main job is trying to come up with new and innovative and effective ways to reject even more mail. I'm up to about 97% now.
