DESCRIPTION

       This  tool  checks  the  date  of all the messages downloaded from specified BBS and deletes the messages
       older than the specified lifetime. The lifetime of  messages  can  be  specified  for  each  BBS  in  the
       configuration file /etc/ax25/bulletins.BBS_CALL

       Each line of this file contains the name of the bulletin and the lifetime in days. When the bulletin name
       is  DEFAULT the lifetime value is used for all the bulletins which are not contained in the list. Example
       of configuration file:

       # Bulletin lifetimes for BBS in days
       DEFAULT 30
       MEET 10
       LINUX 90

       In this case the messages for MEET are stored 10 days, messages for LINUX are  stored  90  days  and  all
       other messages are stored for 30 days.
