NAME
       rmnews - expunge and remove news articles

SYNOPSIS
       rmnews

DESCRIPTION
       Rmnews  reads  article  data from the standard input.  It then expunges
       and removes the listed articles.	 Rmnews is  designed  to  be  used  by
       InterNetNews to remove canceled, superseded, and expired news articles.

       The input is processed as an INN expirerm file listing or an INN cancel
       stream written as a ``WC'' entry in the newsfeeds(5) file.   This  data
       consists	 of  lines of text, each containing a list of relative article
       pathnames, with a single space between entries.	If a  listed  file  is
       contained  in an IMAP news mailbox, it is expunged out of that mailbox.
       In any case, each listed file is unlinked.

       Rmnews reads its configuration options out of the  imapd.conf(5)	 file.
       The  optional  newsprefix  option specifies a prefix to be prepended to
       newsgroup names to make the  corresponding  IMAP	 mailbox  names.   The
       required	 partition-news	 option	 specifies  the pathname prefix to the
       IMAP news mailboxes.  The value of partition-news concatenated with the
       dots-to-slashes-converted  value	 of newsprefix must be the pathname of
       the news spool directory.

FILES
       /etc/imapd.conf
