Sean,

Is it possible for us to "turn on" the ability to delete the
directories/files when an account is deleted?  Our first tier people don't
have shell access so this just creates additional work for us.

Also, what's the best way to reconcile email accounts and the file system to
find orphaned directories?

Thanks!
Craig
