Hello,
I was checking the hard disk space on my Kerio Connect server and noticed that there are about 2 GB of data inside
/opt/kerio/mailserver/plugins/keriobda/antispam
which contains 387 sub-directories. However, the latest of those directories (as well as their contents) have a last modification date of December 8th, 2016. Obviously, the stuff inside that directory is not necessary anymore. Maybe they were from an earlier Kerio Connect version.
Anyway, can I delete those directories and if yes, what is the correct way to do that?
The easiest way would of course be
systemctl stop kerio-connect
rm -fR /opt/kerio/mailserver/plugins/keriobda/antispam/*
systemctl start kerio-connect
but I don't know if this would cause any more or less nasty side effects.
Thanks in advance!

Quote:In the keriobda folder I have 8 executable/dll files
Same here. I also have those (shared objects instead of DLLs though) as well as the mentioned sub-directory.
Quote:I would rename the antispam folder and then restart the Kerio service. If all is good for some days, you can delete it.
Alright, I will do so and report back here if it worked without any problems.

I first stopped Kerio Connect, moved the directory somewhere and restarted it.
Works as a charm! 
Quote:if you have disabled antispam you can delete it
We don't use (or need) the antispam feature at all, so we shouldn't run into any issues here.
Quote:if you haven't, I suspect it'll recreate whatever is needed
I also think so.
