So we are using smtp journaling and the location we are journaling to continues to grow in space. I am not sure why. I have run full back up jobs on the content store mailbox, i have ran cleanup against it as well. When clean up runs it only clears out the recent emails that came. However the path smtpmailcache\mailboxes\inbox have about 140GB of mail items. Am i able to remove all those messages? My retention on that mailbox is 1 day however i have 153 folders and growing in that inbox location. Any advice would be apricated.
Hi
Mind confirming what feature release / maintenance release your environment is on?
The messages/folders that are not clearing, what is the oldest folder (date modified)?
Would also be good to check out CVMailSMTPCleanup.log to see if any errors or skipping is occuring, feel free to share this log from the access node (you’ll want to cleanup any server names / ips etc before sharing it here).
Thanks,
Chris

Sorry for the delay here is the output from the cvmailsmtpcleanup.log, it says skip sub-folder inbox from job. I can’t figure out why that is happening
