I want to get rid of all hidden files under directory DELETED for every
user periodically because these files take away users' disk quotas.  I was
told that PURGE command would do the job but it didn't.  I also tried
PURGE /ALL and PURGE \ALL and again failed.  These were all tried in the
SUPERVISOR account.  What have I missed here?  Or there is simply no way to
purge those DELETED.??? files for every user at one time?  Please enlighten
me.  Thanks.
