Message-ID: <1991Jan16.185727.15843@en.ecn.purdue.edu> Date: 16 Jan 91 18:57:27 GMT Organization: Purdue University Engineering Computer Network Lines: 13 I am interested in a shell script that will, upon execution, view the contents of the /usr/spool/mail/lname file and remove any mail from a certain user or list of users. I'm sure it has been done many times, but I don't have the skills yet to write it on my own. Anyone been hacking away at something like this?
