Yes, you need it and it's correct. Added also to wiki2 now.

Remove the dates from these lines. Now it's assuming you want to use
expire for mailbox called "Trash 30d". The dates are set in doveadm
expunge query, e.g.:

doveadm expunge \( mailbox Trash savedbefore 30d \) or \
\( mailbox Trash/* savedbefore 30d \) or \
\( mailbox Spam savedbefore 14d \) or \
etc..
