This is a good idea for installations with tons of users. Good point.

I would be personally interested in incremental purge per user. My
personal IMAP account, for instance, has at this moment about 40GB of
mdbox files. I keep most of my email for decades, but sure I could free
some space doing a purge, but I am scared of trying with 200.000 mdbox
files without knowing how long it would take.
