I've searched and found no answers relating to how cPanel servers handle deleted emails from mdbox storage.
I know there are settings for rotation, both in size and in time, but it appears that just relates to how often a new file is started; not anything to do with how existing files are treated.
So.
If you go back and delete a bunch of email that is stored in previous mdbox files, how/when is that space freed up? Are those files ever re-written/pruned to free up space?
