I don't use namespaces either, and I've changed my dovecot.conf to use 
the '.' as separator.

Done.

When I ran `dovecot --exec-mail ext 
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool --test', it told me that:
Info: leva/spamassassin.SPAM: stop, expire time in future: 1225290174

Since I've run it without the --test option, it outputs nothing anymore, 
and nothing in the logs.

What else did you configure? Or is there some other thing I should do?

Thanks!

Daniel
