What's the best way to go about mailbox trimming with dovecot's implementation of maildir?
http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Expire although it's a bit annoyingly complex with v1.x. I'm guessing you don't have all that many users, so v2.0 would make this simpler.
I was thinking of writing a script to simply move or delete old files, but would I mess up dovecot's expectations for directory/file structure that way?
There's "v1.0 cronjob equivalent" in the wiki page too. It'll work fine, no messing up Dovecot.
Thank you. You're correct about "all that many users" - with a whopping two users, the cronjob looks good to me =)
