Re: HP-UX mail file management
cat /dev/null > /var/mail/root
If you need selected messages, running elm to browse through 3000 messages is quite fast and you can hold down the d key to delete the messages, about 10-20 per second. If you get to the end and discover some old messages you want to keep, just roll up/down and undo the deletion.

Re: HP-UX mail file management
I guess they automatically resize when e-mails are deleted - I just did not expect the e-mails were so big!
Thanks all!
