[hylafax-users] Auto-removal of non-TIFF fax files?



Hello.

Can faxcron remove files other than the default *.tif files?

I've been using HylaFAX (currently v4.1.2) for about a year and it has 
been running great.  I've configured faxcron to auto-erase the log and 
fax files after 6 months.

Recently the use of TIFF files has become a problem, so now I convert 
incoming faxes to PDF format and save them to the ~/recv directory.   
Using the new scheme, I have a set of fax files that looks like this:

-rw-r--r--    1 fax      uucp         6215 May 26 09:16 fax00102.pdf
-rw-r--r--    1 fax      uucp         9094 May 26 09:16 fax00102.tif
-rw-r--r--    1 fax      uucp         6218 May 26 09:36 fax00103.pdf
-rw-r--r--    1 fax      uucp         9100 May 26 09:36 fax00103.tif

I really don't need the *.tif files after the TIFF-->PDF conversion, but 
I'm reluctant to erase them until the conversion process has proven 
itself.

So... can I have faxcron also/instead remove the PDF files after n days 
have elapsed?  Maybe I should ask the question another way: does faxcron 
just erase *.tif files or will it delete anything of appropriate age in 
the target subdirectory?

Please CC me with any responses as I am not a list subscriber.

Thanks.
