Why 25 at a time?

Why 25 at a time?
Hi,

Tried deleting Trash Messages (Purge Message) from Admin. Now it seems that it is set to operate at 25 messages at a time. That would be painful if the message list (Trash) runs into one thousand say. That would mean 40 attempts to complete the job.

Is there a way out of this "25 at a time Fix"

Hi,

Since this query went unanswered for long, it prompted me to think that I posted a query which probably wasn't proper so I went about testing the Purge message (Trash Folder) from Admin.

Started: 216 messages to purge .... clicked Yes

Result: 216 messages have been purged.

Searched again to find 216-25=191 Message To Purge.....Clicked yes

This carried on till the search resulted in 0 but all this happened in batches of 25 though after Purge at each stage it showed that all messages have been purged.

Any enlightenment on this?

Thnx

Hi Adrian,

I tried again after that -1 substitution in Purge.pm and had 194 messages in Trash Folder.

It did not work. It worked the same as before 25 at a time. My Purge.pm is attached....

Thnx

Hi Adrian,

I think it worked.... just had to restart httpd after the changes.

The question is when does the status bar appear about messages being Purged? Is it above a certain number of messages or it doesn't happen at all....

Thnx for suggestions...

IIRC, it only appears when there's over 1000 messages to be purged.
