  • Rock, hard place, what?

    For reasons I won’t go into here, it’s been decreed that there shall be no more automatic deletions of emails. At all. Period.

    Well that’s just dandy, because I have a server that’s chronically low on disk space and the only way I can keep it from crashing is to (you guessed it) purge emails that are oversized or very outdated. So, uh, now what do I do?

    The answer, of course, is to implement archiving. On each account. Individually. One at a time. Within the next day or two. Or face a crashed email server.

    You’d think they’d give me a bit more time in which to pull off the impossible, wouldn’t you? Ah well…
