    Default how to remove all ./INBOX_ files in one way??

    When you convert to maildir, there are a lot of folders inside each user like

    /.INBOX_Trash
    /.INBOX_SENT
    /.INBOX_New

    this are related of mbox format, cause maildir uses

    cur
    new
    tmp

    Is there a way to remove all of them from all home directories?

    Thanks

    did you try
    Code:
    rm -rf /home/*/mail/.INBOX.Trash
    Run for each directory you wish to remove.
