Deleting mails from the command line?

[Paul Boven]

Hi everyone,

On a new cyrus installation, we've just started importing lots of mail 
(imapsync) and it turns out that there are quite a few viruses (virii?) 
in there. I could easily tell my virus-scanner to delete each infected 
mail in /var/spool/imap/ but I'm quite sure that Cyrus will then 
consider these mailboxes as being corrupt.

What would be a proper way to delete these emails, preferably from the 
command line or perl so I can script the whole thing and get rid of all 
the NetSky's and Sober's ?

Regards, Paul Boven.
