NAME
       ipurge  -  delete  mail	from IMAP mailbox or partition based on age or
       size

SYNOPSIS
       ipurge [ -f ] [ -C config-file ] [ -x ] [ -X ] [ -i ] [ -s ]
	      [ -d days | -b bytes | -k Kbytes | -m Mbytes ]
	      [ mailbox-pattern...  ]

DESCRIPTION
       Ipurge deletes messages from the mailbox(es) specified by  mailbox-pat‐
       tern  that  are	older or larger than specified by the -d, -b, -k or -m
       options.	 If no mailbox-pattern is given, ipurge	 works	on  all	 mail‐
       boxes.	If the -x option is given, the message age and size MUST match
       exactly those specified by -d, -b, -k or -m.  The are no	 default  val‐
       ues, and at least one of -d, -b, -k or -m MUST be specified.

       Ipurge  by  default only deletes mail below shared folders, which means
       that mails in mailbox(es) below INBOX.* and user.* stay untouched.  Use
       the option -f to also delete mail in mailbox(es) below these folders.

       Ipurge  reads  its  configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file
       unless specified otherwise by -C.

OPTIONS
       -f     Force deletion of mail in all mailboxes.

       -C config-file
	      Read configuration options from config-file.

       -d days
	      Age of message in days.

       -b bytes
	      Size of message in bytes.

       -k Kbytes
	      Size of message in Kbytes (2^10 bytes).

       -m Mbytes
	      Size of message in Mbytes (2^20 bytes).

       -x     Perform an exact match on age  or	 size  (instead	 of  older  or
	      larger).

       -X     Use delivery time instead of Date: header for date matches

       -i     Invert  match logic: -x means not equal, date is for newer, size
	      is for smaller

       -s     Skip over messages that have the \Flagged flag set.

FILES
       /etc/imapd.conf
