i have a list of users that I’ve removed from LDAP and I want to delete their mail storage.
sdbox Dovecot 2.2.15.8
I have mail messages in one location and indexes in another. Should I just rm -rf /messages/<username> rm -rf /indexes/<username>
Thanks, JK

if that's where the mail_location points to. Also check out the home directory of eash user.

Thank you, sir. Sounds easy enough. To complicate issues, I have two-way dsync running between two servers. Since the index log files are used to track deleted mails (yes?), do I need to worry about replication trying to bring things back?
Can I just rm the users files from each server and be OK?
Thanks again, JK

You've wrote: "users that I’ve removed from LDAP". Do you find any log entries of those users generated by dsync? Well, provided you have logs from dsync at all.
Can I just rm the users files from each server and be OK?
That depends on how you invoke dsync.
