We typically create a subfolder of the user's mailbox via cyradm or IMAP

Requires no thought.   Have used this far less since the delayed expunge
was introduced.

Hello,

delayed expunge sounds interesting to me, so far we used reconstruct to
recover deleted mail from our backups. So i need the option expunge_mode
set to delayed. Do i also need to set the option delete_mode to delayed?
Most restore operations we have to do are about whole folders that have
been deleted.

expunge_mode is only for mails, delete_mode is the option for
folders but works slightly different. The deleted folder is
moved to a special folder (option deletedprefix in imapd.conf)
You can restore the folder with cyradm by movin it to the old
place.

cyr_expire will remove the old mails an folders. Take a look at
the options and configure a cyr_expire run in the EVENT section
of cyrus.conf
