Topic: Delete files from filesystem

==== Required information ====

- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL

Hi,
I know it was being already discussed but still: Do you plan to implement feature for deleting mailboxes from filesystem after it's deleted in iRedAdmin?
It's more problematic then it seems. Some users solve their full mailbox by deleting it and creating new one. But if files are still present on the filesystem, after mailbox is created again, mails are still there.
I could even sponsor this feature and I bet there could be more users who could be willing to sponsor it smile

Re: Delete files from filesystem

Little update:
I can go in the way of deleting mailboxes by a script run by cron and fetch mailboxes from table "deleted_mailboxes". But even if I delete some mailbox, it's still empty. And yes, I have a license for Pro version of iRedAdmin.
Could you please give me a hint?

Thanks.

Sorry, what do you mean "delete some mailbox, it's still empty"?

This feature is available in iRedAdmin-Pro-MySQL-1.7.0. Are you running v1.7.0? If not, please upgrade it first.

Re: Delete files from filesystem

Any record in sql table "vmail.deleted_mailboxes"? MySQL and PostgreSQL backends will log in "vmail.deleted_mailboxes", OpenLDAP logs in "iredadmin.deleted_mailboxes" instead.

Of course it is there.. I apologize, I've been checking a table in a different database.
