Hi,
we use namespace with prefix = INBOX.
When we need to remove all messages in mailbox we need to run this
commands:
doveadm expunge -u user at domain mailbox INBOX ALL
doveadm expunge -u user at domain mailbox INBOX.* ALL
The first remove mailboxes in inbox and the second in other subfolders.
And in case you use dbox format:
doveadm purge -u user at domain
