My command "/usr/lib/cyrus/bin/ipurge -f -X -d 100 user/test/spam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
gives me:

Working on user/test/spam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx...
Total messages                   9214
Total bytes                      191140555
Deleted messages                 1
Deleted bytes                    2250912
Remaining messages               9213
Remaining bytes                  188889643

So i see it markin as /Deleted works. Access by imap client gives the number 9213. But in
the filesystem there are many more files in the spam folder: 9213 which can be 'seen' and
many more which are marked as /Deleted.

The command "/usr/sbin/cyrus expire -E 4 -D 28 -X 28" should Expunge (which is, what i
suppose, removing from filesystem) the /Deleted marked files.

Am i wrong?

regards
Horst
