Topic: Delete specific email across all inboxes

[Osqa]

We've recently had a malicious mail sent out to all our inboxes on SME Server. Is it possible to have that specific email deleted across all user inboxes? If so how can it be done?

Thanks

Emails are in the user's folders in /home/e-smith/files/users maybe you can use a find/grep command and remove them automatically

Thanks stephdl,

Code: [Select]

grep -r -l 'Text_String_To_Search' /home/e-smith/files/users/user_name/Maildir/cur | xargs rm -f
Has worked.

does someone has another version of this command line, that should be good to write it in the 'useful command', thanks for your return Osqa
