  • Help with purging users

    From Jafo@21:1/999 to All on Wed May 13 09:25:00 2026
    Can someone help me with a nightly maint.ini setting to purge users after 180 days? I see how to flag users for deletion in the stanza
    [PurgeUserBase]
    days = 180

    however, the users never get removed.
    I run a schedule mutil maint.ini nightly and all works except removing old users.

    Can someone maybe help me on this?

    Look in the Mystic WIKI for "Pack User Base"

    Just be sure to backup before doing this the first time.

    Might be a dumb question, but did you set:

    PurgeUserBase = true

    Near the top of mutil.ini?
