Why not turn on autoexpunge after next nuke? https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/namespace/#namespace-settings I should have mentioned I did this:
mailbox Junk { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 2 weeks special_use = \Junk
It’s not working. There were over half a million files in my Junk folder, almost all hard links with over 3,000 links.
Keeping reply in-list...
Does this happen after each nuke or was it just first time?
I had disabled the “nuke” because I thought it was working, but when I rebuilt the system this weekend I noticed all the hard links in the junk folder (since they do not take up space, I hadn’t noticed).
At that point (Monday) I deleted all the mail in every Junk folder, so right now I cannot answer this. Mail in the .Junk/cur folder dated back to November, at least.
Looking at mail logs I see “too many” instances of "sieve: pipe action: piped message to program `sa-learn-spam.sh’” and " sieve: left message in mailbox ‘Junk'" (140 thousand this week on my non-list account, where maybe only 50 messages were moved/copied to Junk).
My account has a .active_sieve file. But it makes no mention of Junk.
