Thanks Jeff. I thought that the expire mboxconfig setting required
running of the cyr_expire program to trigger it, but I could never
figure out why it forces you to include the expiry age on the command
line when the mailbox folders have that info already.

i too have a similar query  i too need to delet messages older than 3 days . 

in my /etc/cyru.conf i have a entry like this 

delprune cmd="cyr_expire -E 3" at=0400

would this mean that the messages in(  /var/spool/imap/a/users/abp/* ) older than 3 days get deleted ?

thank you !!
