CRASHMAINT(1)							     CrashMail							     CRASHMAINT(1)

NAME

       crashmaint - Do maintanence on CrashMail message bases

SYNOPSIS

       crashmaint [MAINT] [PACK] [VERBOSE] [SETTINGS filename] [PATTERN pattern]

DESCRIPTION

       Deletes	old  messages according to KEEPNUM and KEEPDAYS in crashmail.prefs.  The program can do two different operations on a messagebase,
       MAINT and PACK.	The meaning of these two modes are different for different messagebase formats.

       *.msg  MAINT deletes messages and PACK renumbers the area.

       JAM    MAINT sets the Deleted flag for the messages.  PACK removes all messages with the Deleted flag from the messagebase.

       Both MAINT and PACK can be specified at the same time.

OPTIONS

       SETTINGS filename
	      Specifies that another config file than the default should be used. You can use the environment variable	CMCONFIGFILE  to  set  the
	      default configuration file.

       PATTERN pattern
	      Lets you perform the operations on only some of your areas.

       VERBOSE
	      Gives you a lot of information which you don't really need.

EXAMPLES

       crashmaint MAINT PACK PATTERN R20_AMIGA*
