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).
