NAME
uucleanup - uucp spool directory clean-up
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/uucp/uucleanup [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
Uucleanup removes old files from the uucp spool directories. It is
controlled by a number of options:
-Cdays Remove B C. files that are at least days old, and send a mes‐
sage to the user who queued the job.
-Ddays Remove D. files that are at least days old. If the data file
appears to contain a mail message, an attempt will be made to
deliver it; if it contains a netnews article from another sys‐
tem, it will be handed to rnews.
-Wdays Send a warning to the user who queued any jobs (C. files) at
least days old. If one of the data files for the job appears
to be a mail message, the message is included in the warning.
-Xdays Remove any X. files at least days old.
-mstring
Include string in warning messages. The default is ``See your
local administrator to locate the problem.''
-odays Remove any other files that are at least days old.
-ssystem
Examine only files associated with system.
By default, C. files generate a warning when one day old, and are re‐
moved after 7 days; D. files are removed after 7 days; and X. and
other files are removed after 2 days.
This program is typically called by the shell uudemon.cleanup, which
should be started regularly by cron(8).
