I think I want the other half of the operation. When my users (and me in case
I forget to expunge) delete messages (marking the messages with the \Delete
flag), I want something that will run through all the mailboxes looking for
messages that are \Delete'd and over N days old. When this commands finds
a message matching the two conditions I want that message physically
purged from the system.
