Matthew Jordan 54803338b4 Always install safe_asterisk; add configuration file support
This patch modifies the behavior of safe_asterisk in two ways:
(1) It modifies the Asterisk Makefile such that safe_asterisk is always
    installed on a 'make install'. This was done as bugfixes in the
    safe_asterisk script were not applied in previous version of Asterisk
    without first removing the old version of the script.
(2) In order to keep a newly installed version of safe_asterisk from impacting
    local modifications, a new config file - safe_asterisk.conf.sample - has
    been provided. Settings that were previously modified in safe_asterisk can
    be set there instead.

README.messages-expire

messages-expire.pl

messages-expire finds messages more than X days old and deletes them. 
Because the older messages will be the lower numbers in the folder (msg0000
will be older than msg0005), just deleting msg0000 will not work. 
expire-messages then runs a routine that goes into every folder in every
mailbox to reorganize.  If the folder contains msg0000, no action is taken. 
If the folder does not, the rename routine takes the oldest message and
names it msg0000, the next oldest message and names it msg0001 and so on.

The file deletion is done by the -exec parameter to 'find'.  It would be far
more efficient to take the output from 'find' and just reorganize the
directories from which we deleted a file.  Something for the future...

Keep in mind that messages are deleted at the beginning of the script you
will have mailbox trouble if you check messages before the script
reorganizes your mailbox.

To use it, make sure the paths are right.  Adjust $age (originally set to
31) if necessary.
