Oh cool. Nice to hear.
Remember to take a look at the prefetch
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/Prefetch , it saves you an
extra query in cases where authentication took place before userdb
lookup.

I've set up both static userdb and mysql userdb and
according to mysql logs it works as you described!
Will move from static to sql usersdb anyway.
Thanks!

I don't know, why don't
you just try?
If you run the exact same command but with "search"
instead of "expunge", it should also use the expire
plugin in the same way, so that should be an easy
test.
Are you using sql for passdb? If so I wonder if you
could define an sql userdb in addition to the static
userdb with only an iterate_query defined..?

So,
is enabling expire plugin the only way "doveadm
expunge" to work with static userdb, because of
lack iterate_query option?
If I test it now "doveadm search" I see:

Trying to iterate users, but userdbs don't

userdb I have:
userdb {
args = uid=vmail gid=vmail
home=/home/mail/vhosts/%d/%n
driver = static
}
Is it OK and doveadm will not have to iterate
users since expire plugin is enabled?
Or should I still fix it to get it works
properly?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Yes, you add
that cron job, and it would work with or
without the expire plugin.
The thing is that if the expire plugin is
enabled, the "doveadm expunge" command will
look at the expires table in mysql and only
process users who are in the database with a
timestamp older than your specified message
age. The timestamp is supposed to designate
"age of oldest message in folder". Without the
expires plugin, the command would have to
process every user in the system (as per the
result of the iterate query, if you're using
SQL authentication) and actually open every
Trash folder and look inside, which would
normally be a lot more work and take more
time.

Hi!
Thanks for your suggestion, that moved
me in to right direction.
It was double permission issue, that I
was able to debug since changed format,
and now timestaps are added into the mysql
table.
As far as I understand expire plugin
only adds timestamps to mysql table, and
thats it, isn't it?
I mean I want to understand how to
configure mails to be removed...
Do I need to add to cron "doveadm
expunge -A mailbox Trash savedbefore
30d" ?
Thanks a lot!
