Hi,
One of user is complaining that all his previous emails are missing from the mailbox. I don't see any mails in the file system also. Is there a way to check (logs) whether the mails were deleted or expunged by anyone.

Thanks in advance..
Divakar

What do you mean "previous emails"?

Did you see any related log about those "previous emails" in Postfix log file?

Yes.. The user had large number of mails in his mailbox.
To simply put my ask - If an email is deleted, is it recorded anywhere?

I mean, check Postfix log file to see whether there's any email sent to this user, or delivered.

You have to update Dovecot config file to log this action:
