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       superseded, and expired news articles.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  con-
       tained 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 speci-
       fies a prefix to be prepended to newsgroup names	 to  make
       the corresponding IMAP mailbox names.  The required parti-
       tion-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
