i use one mysql setup for all servers
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Expire

and doing cron jobs on every server
i.e
doveadm expunge -A mailbox Trash savedbefore 30d

fit the cron times and expunge times and folders to your needs
prepare for cron mail messages what got expunged

if you have lots off acounts there may be better ways
