There is an IMAP command that does that. I don't remember its name,  
but you can lookup in the RFC.

Or you can just remove the file (if using mbox) or directory (if using  
Maildir) that holds the mailbox. Then remove the indexes, which can be  
in the same directory or somewhere else, depending on how you  
configured dovecot.
