# It seems netatalk has problems dealing with Eudora:
# Occasionally files in the "Attachments Folder" explodes
# to sizes in the area 80-100 Megabytes.
#
# This script is the simple "solution": delete huge files...
#
# I put it in a cron job once a month just before an
# rsync script to mirror all homes to another machine.
#
# UPDATE: The script has had no use lately - either netatalk has fixed the
# problem, or only old versions of Eudora has this faulty behaviour.
