Managing Mailboxes

[langs]

I have a number of uses with 20gb Mailboxes, these are senior manages who quota's were not applied to... but it's getting beyond the point where I am happy for them to be allowed to self manage their mailbox sizes.

I want to get them under control but I need a way to a) get a total size of mail attachments in a mailbox and then b) be able to strip all attachments from a mailbox from the cli.

it would be nice if i could do this by file type, ie pdf's etc. I think a majority of these attachments are building plans we keep on file anyway, they should not be being kept in our mail system and I can't seen to educate these users about this.

Any idea's how to manage this and get them back down to a point where I can give them 6gb quota's.

this thread might help you a bit with a few suggestions

Batch Deletion/Removal of Attachment > X Mb

but yeah there is nothing in zimbra to batch delete attachments yet much less discriminating by type
