I took over this email server late in 2003. According to the nasd a copy of all broker emails must be kept. At first we were using mbox and now we use Maildir. One user has a copy of all email including "[SPAM]" mails.
We have discussed it and want to remove all the mail marked as [SPAM] and send it to the bit bucket before archiving it. I found some perl scripts and other scripts which are supposed to do what I want but they all either segfault or don't do anything.


Then I thought I could maybe run them through SA with a procmail entry to send them off to never never land. Could someone explain how to do this with both types of inboxes. I think I know how with Maildir but am not so sure with the old mbox files. If I don't need to fool with procmail so much the better.

This will probably remove 10 gigs of mail from what I need to archive.

Thanks ahead.
