Replying to a message from: James

Hey, long time. Been very busy lately, hope your all well out there.

Quick one for the team, I haven't had the time to explore all features and bug fixes of your latest release so pardon me if this option is there;

I need an option to clear down all emails in the junk folder.  Presently all filtered emails go into the junk folder and according to the set policy get flushed.

A select all check box from the junk message repository and delete would be fantastic as an override to the current set user policy.

Primary reason due to AV scans, Secondary reason due to backups.  AV scans are having to scan over the same files again and again when doing full scans as well as full backups being duplicated.

- I am aware the folder can be excluded (goes against policy's)

- I am aware we can reduce the term to keep emails (this is a band-aid)

- I am are incremental backups can be used (full backups are still required, company policy)

- I am aware a batch job can be scheduled to flush the physical folder (tricky and troublesome, also requires extra user time)


Ideal solution:

- To have some sort of timing job to flush the folder per day or allow us to integrate a cron job.

Quick Fix:

- To allow admins to clear all junk (and other repository folders) emails [physical files] from the disk at a users request within the interface.

 

Thanks and sorry if I have missed the option!

Cheers devs / techs.
