[Dovecot] Scheduled folder purging

[Charles Marcus]

Benjamin R. Haskell, on 2/18/2008 12:52 PM, said the following:
> Said I: (in the thread "Deleting messages from MailDir")
>>> Does the expunge plugin work without the user logging in, though?

> Timo responded:
>> Yes. That's exactly what it does. It keeps user/mailbox <-> oldest_msg

>> expunged.

Cool, missed that one, thanks Benjamin... :)
