The Clear Mail Log Command
The command Clear Mail Log (APF3812/CLRMAILLOG) is closely linked with the APF3812/WRKMAILLOG command. Whenever you e-mail from InterForm400 both the e-mail and the status of the e-mail is stored in a log. If you want to purge old e-mails and log entries you can use the Clear Mail Log command. As default all entries older than 120 days will be deleted, when you run this command:
Clear Mail Log (CLRMAILLOG)
Type choices, press Enter.
Mimimum days old . . . . . . . . MINDAYS 120 14-365 OutBox directory . . . . . . . . OUTBOXDIR *ALL Name, *ALL Reorganize physical file mbrs . RGZ *NO *NO, *YES
Bottom F3=Exit F4=Prompt F5=Refresh F12=Cancel F13=How to use this display F24=More keys

The OUTBOXDIR (OutBox directory) can be used for specifying a specific sub directory (within /APF3812Home/OutBox), if you only want to clean up a specific subdirectory. With *ALL (default) all subdirectories will be cleaned for old e-mails.
You can also decide to reorganize the members of the physical files used for the mail log with this command. As default the members are not reorganized. For a description of what reorganizing is refer to the description of the OS400 command, RGZPFM.
Please notice, that this command only deletes old emails in the /APF3812Home/OutBox (and sub-directories) - it does not delete old emails, that has been saved via the save option on the email commands/functions. These saved emails are stored in the IFS in /APF3812Home/Log and you will need to clean up old emails yourself in this directory.
The e-mails are stored in /APF3812Mail/OutBox.
TIP: It is a REALLY good idea to run the CLRMAILLOG command on a regular basis to prevent excessive disk usage as the e-mails will build up in /APF3812Home/OutBox.
