We have a situation in which we have junk mail databases in our domino servers, which receive emails that were originally intended for people who no longer work for us.
We have to manually delete these emails at least once a week.
What code (if necessary) needs to be input and where specifically does it need to be input in order for those junk emails to be deleted automatically?
Any ideas?

Subject: Automatically delete emails from a particular mail database
You could try using the “Remove documents not modified in the last X days” which is in the Replication settings under the Space Savers tab.
With R6 archive rules you can also set up a rule which will just delete messages. Add a new archive setting with “Just clean up this database without archiving” selected and under the Select Documents section choose the age of emails to delete.
Also make sure that the archiving is set to occur on the server, not locally, and that it’s set as enabled.
Subject: I would do the first, as it is a ‘full’ delete i.e. no deletion stubs are left behind.
