Guess we'll need some clarification from Timo, Charles, because the 1.1.beta16 dovecot-example.conf states...

Ok, sound slike I was wrong... it would be nice of it didn't require a cronjob, though...
P.S. One more thing... He sure doesn't help things by using the word "expunge" in a paragraph that defines the expire plugin. I'd much prefer the definition read something like this:
Well... expunge is indeed the correct term for deleting messages from a maiildir using IMAP, and dovecot is primarily an IMAP server... ;)
But I see your point too.
