Mail folder aging rules

Post by pblair »

In the Webmail server settings I see that it's possible to clear Trash on logout. I'm looking for a way to clear messages in trash out after 30 days. What I'd actually really like is to be able to do that with other folders as well. Is there a setting for this somewhere? Or, can it be done with Sieve?

Sieve acts on messages as they come in before they have been delivered, so I don't think Sieve would help here.

The RoundCube client is a pretty simplified interface, but you could try something like Thunderbird, which does have options for time-based deletion on a per-folder basis, and see if that works.

(If you try Thunderbird, it also happens to have a Sieve add-on.)

We don't have anything that expires messages except for mail boxes being used for Mail Mirror storage. I'm not aware of anything that Sieve could do.

Expire is supported on the server side, but there isn't a user facing interface for it in the control center.

Thanks -- I do have Thunderbird, so I'll try that.
