When accessing mail locally, the Pine Expunge command moves all messages marked for deletion to the VMS MAIL WASTEBASKET folder. In addition, it performs the equivalent VMS MAIL PURGE command only when your VMS MAIL profile allows for AUTO_PURGE. If you have set NOAUTO_PURGE, then the deleted messages are left in the WASTEBASKET folder. However, should you expunge the WASTEBASKET folder, then the VMS MAIL PURGE function will be performed. Purged message space is not available for reuse until a reclaim operation is performed. When the amount of deleted message space in the mail file exceeds 32,767 bytes, a reclaim operation is automatically done by the Expunge command.
Pine never compresses your mail file. |
