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: Aug 24 13:28:22 piscola dovecot: auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth Aug 24 13:28:22 piscola dovecot: auth: Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth/libdriver_mysql.so Aug 24 13:28:22 piscola dovecot: auth: Debug: master in: LIST#0111 Aug 24 13:28:22 piscola dovecot: auth: Error: Trying to iterate users, but userdbs don't support it 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?

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.

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" ?
