email house keeping

[keat63]

The boss has semi retired but still wants to see a copy of all the OS Commerce sales.
There are in excess of 50 per day from various sites.

I have copies going to a seperate mailbox, but he's either not tech savvy enough to clear them out, or just too lazy.

Is there any method I could use so that any email older than 30 days is removed from the mailbox automatically, otherwise we run the risk of there being thousands within a few months.

Hello ,

You will have to setup cron job to remove old mails from your account. Please check following thread and update your cron

Hello

I suggest researching cron jobs as a start:

Cron Jobs - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Thank you.

Adding a schedule is pretty straight forward, it's the scripting of the delete and figuring out how to delete the files, which ones to delete and not interfere with anything else that i'll struggle with.

Maybe this should be a feature built in to cpanel, or one of the web clients ?

You can open a feature request at:

However, note a feature that deletes customer data is unlikely. You may want to consult with a third-party developer for assistance with writing a custom application or script if the thread referenced earlier is unhelpful.

Thank you.
