RE: [MLUG] linux pop3 mail nuker?

["Russell Horn" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Hopefuly you have php installed. This was more or less stolen from a
website, but borrowed on an idea I had of using sockets in php

<?php
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$num = 4;
$f = fsockopen("mypop3server.com","110");
fputs($f,"user $username\r\n");
fputs($f,"pass $password\r\n");
for($x = 0; $x < $num; $x++) {
fputs($f,"DELE $x\r\n");
}
fputs($f,"QUIT\r\n");
fclose($f);
?>

If you log in yourself using telnet first of all, telnet to your host on
port 110

Type 	user USERNAME
	pass	PASSWORD

Then type
	stat

That will return the total number of messages - pop that figure in line
four $num = however many messages you wish to delete.


You should be able to run the script by using 

EMAIL:PROTECTED:~> php myscript.php

Hope that helps,

Russell
