Here's what I do...first set the scan time on the bbs to occur maybe every 15
minutes or longer to give you time to find the files you need to delete.

Then, look at your toss log and find the last packet and delete it and netmail
msg. it is attached to. It is pretty easy to find the packet by looking in your
 netmail directory for the attach message because it will list the filename in
the subject.  You can view the file to make sure it's the right message you
just typed by using this linux command: unzip -pC
/home/bbbs/outbound/e508d0f2.we1|strings |less

That's the way I do it <g>

If you want to scan out faster after that, you can just type in the scan
command manually (cd bbbs; ./bbbs bogus r)

Hope that helps.

Take care,
Janis
