Hello,

I installed iRedMail today and wanted to remove it, because it takes too much RAM.

I read the FAQ: http://www.iredmail.org/forum/topic333- … dmail.html

but I can not find the path to iRedMail

I tried whereis iRedMail, iRedMail-0.8.4, iRedMail-0.8.5, iRedMail-0.8.6
and i tried sudo find / -name iRedMail, iRedMail-0.8.4, iRedMail-0.8.5, iRedMail-0.8.6

none of those worked.

I couldn´t find the directory for it. And I don´t know why, but since i installed iRedMail, my VNC wont work so i cant see anything through a GUI.

Please help me with this issue.

Re: Can´t Remove iRedMail

*) The fastest way to remove iRedMail is re-installing your server (Ubuntu) if possible.
*) If you don't want to re-install server OS, you can find script "clear_iredmail.sh" here, execute it will remove packages installed by iRedMail: https://bitbucket.org/zhb/iredmail/src/default/extra/
WARNING: It removes packages and their config files without your confirm.

Re: Can´t Remove iRedMail

First way is a nogo for me.

and the second way causes this:
