Hi, I recently sat down over a customer bug report and found out, that ipurge uses the sent date (which is what is in the Date: Header of a mail or the offset OFFSET_SENTDATE) to determine the age of a single message. The problem with that is, that there's an increasing amount of messages (sort SPAM) with dates in the far future and therefor these mails won't get deleted using ipurge.
A short look at the source made me try to use OFFSET_INTERNALDATE (from imap/mailbox.h), which seems to do what I want, deleting mails which had been received n days ago. Is that assumption right, or do I have to reckon some strange side effects? -- With best regards, Carsten Hoeger
