Well, not for me. doveadm search -u user@domain ALL savedbefore 2d -- returns some messages doveadm expunge -u user@domain mailbox '*' savedbefore 2d -- nothing shown, but no error doveadm search -u user@domain ALL savedbefore 2d -- returns the same messages as before I've got 2.2.9 (Ubuntu package for 14.04) > I guess that's reasonable for a critical application, but normally I > would expect an IMAP client to request headers-only, or just recent > messages. My phone's K9 client defaults to something like 2 weeks. Right. But your phone has 100s of kbps or even Mbps of bandwidth, full duplex. But when multiple users are sharing a simplex 56kbps radio channel, even just the headers of old/irrelevant mail are to be avoided. Michael
