uucleanup(1M)                                                 uucleanup(1M)


   NAME
         uucleanup - uucp spool directory clean-up

   SYNOPSIS
         /usr/lib/uucp/uucleanup [options]

   DESCRIPTION
         uucleanup will scan the spool directories for old files and take
         appropriate action to remove them in a useful way:

               Inform the requester of send/receive requests for systems that
               can not be reached.
               Return undeliverable mail to the sender.
               Deliver rnews files addressed to the local system.
               Remove all other files.

         In addition, there is a provision to warn users of requests that have
         been waiting for a given number of days (default 1).  Note that
         uucleanup will process as if all option times were specified to the
         default values unless time is specifically set.

         The following options are available.

         -Ctime    Any C. files greater or equal to time days old will be
                   removed with appropriate information to the requester.
                   (default 7 days)

         -Dtime    Any D. files greater or equal to time days old will be
                   removed.  An attempt will be made to deliver mail messages
                   and execute rnews when appropriate.  (default 7 days)

         -Wtime    Any C. files equal to time days old will cause a mail
                   message to be sent to the requester warning about the delay
                   in contacting the remote.  The message includes the JOBID,
                   and in the case of mail, the mail message.  The
                   administrator may include a message line telling whom to
                   call to check the problem (-m option).  (default 1 day)

         -Xtime    Any X. files greater or equal to time days old will be
                   removed.  The D. files are probably not present (if they
                   were, the X. could get executed).  But if there are D.
                   files, they will be taken care of by D. processing.
                   (default 2 days)

         -mstring  Include string in the warning message generated by the -W
                   option.

         -otime    Other files whose age is more than time days will be
                   deleted.  (default 2 days) The default line is "See your
                   local administrator to locate the problem".

         -ssystem  Execute for system spool directory only.

         -xdebug_level
                   The -x debug level is a single digit between 0 and 9;
                   higher numbers give more detailed debugging information.
                   (This option may not be available on all systems.)

         This program is typically started by the shell uudemon.cleanup, which
         should be started by cron(1M).
