No need, I have indeed already gone beyond the "but I made a cron job, 
why isn't it working" point.

mysql> select * from expires;

Complete doveadm output with domain masked:

The row being deleted: levy at xxxxxxx.com, Junk, 1350397036 (Tue Oct 16 
10:17:16 EDT 2012), all others at this point in time are younger than 14 
days.
So far it has seemed to me that running any search or expunge has the 
sole effect of deleting rows matching the savedbefore criteria, 
regardless of the mailbox criteria.

working with doveadm -o"mail_plugins=....." leaving out expire seems to 
work fine.
