Replying at the bottom keeps everything in easily-read order.

According to this, everything older than 6 days will be pruned from the 
database.  Are your job emails showing something similar to this:


09-Dec 07:58 bacula-dir JobId 41183: Begin pruning Jobs older than 3 years .
09-Dec 07:58 bacula-dir JobId 41183: No Jobs found to prune.
09-Dec 07:58 bacula-dir JobId 41183: Begin pruning Jobs.
09-Dec 07:58 bacula-dir JobId 41183: No Files found to prune.
09-Dec 07:58 bacula-dir JobId 41183: End auto prune.

But, hopefully, finding something to prune.
