OK. I use catchall email for my domain but I use gmail (good spam filtering)

here is the problem. the way it works is I create a catchall ([email protected]) and set it to forward to my gmail account.

problem is it ALSO keeps a copy in its own webmail imap account and there is NO way to automatically empty this and using gmail to access it is cludgy at best. The problem is every few months this 500mb mail box fills up. When that happens ALL mail stops as it gets bounced and not forwarded. I have to remember the address login etc.. and manually empty it out.

Here is what I am looking for. a tiny app that I can program with my server user name password etc.. for the imap account.

I tap this app and it just logs in and EMPTIES the account. Completely. deletes everything. nothing else. I don't need to see it or anything (its already been forwarded to me anyway)

this way once a month I tap this app and POOF all the mail saved in the imap account goes byebye. does anything remotely like that exist?
