Deleting a mailbox recursively

Hello and thanks for the answer,

as of version 2.2.24 this is not working:

# doveadm mailbox delete -r dove
delete: invalid option -- 'r'

I crawled through the changelog since 2.2.24 and could not find any
change like this.
Also neither the wiki nor the man-pages mention a "-r"-flag. I am a bit
confused here.
