I'm looking for a program that will "age" mail. For example, that will look in /var/spool/mail/*, and if a user has mail older than X days, will delete those messages (leaving the newer ones). Is such a program out there?

It then allows you to pipe the results, of a "pick" of all files older than X (say 10) days, and delete them. Available via anonymous ftp from: cse.ogi.edu You can find it in: pub/mush/mush-7.2.0.tar.Z -- Bill Petro {decwrl,hplabs,ucbvax}!sun!Eng!rock "UNIX for the sake of the kingdom of heaven" Matthew 19:12
