NAME
       cyr_expire - expire messages and duplicate delivery database entries

SYNOPSIS
       cyr_expire [ -C config-file ] -E expire-days [ -X expunge-days ] [ -v ]

DESCRIPTION
       Cyr_expire  is  used to expire messages and duplicate delivery database
       entries.	 Cyr_expire also cleanses mailboxes of partially expunged mes‐
       sages  (when using the "delayed" expunge mode).	The expiration of mes‐
       sages is controlled by the /vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire mailbox anno‐
       tation which specifies the age (in days) of messages in the given mail‐
       box that should be deleted.  Any duplicate  delivery  database  entries
       which correspond to the mailbox are also deleted at the same frequency.

       The value of the /vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire annotation is inherited
       by all children of the given mailbox, so an entire mailbox tree can  be
       expired	by  seting a single annotation on the root of that tree.  If a
       mailbox does not have a /vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire  annotation  set
       on  it (or does not inherit one), then no messages are expired from the
       mailbox.

       Cyr_expire reads its configuration options  out	of  the	 imapd.conf(5)
       file unless specified otherwise by -C.

OPTIONS
       -C config-file
	      Read configuration options from config-file.

       -E expire-days
	      Prune  the duplicate database of entries older than expire-days.
	      This value is only used for entries which do not have  a	corre‐
	      sponding /vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/expire mailbox annotation.

       -X expunge-days
	      Expunge  previously  deleted  messages  older  than expunge-days
	      (when using the "delayed"	 expunge  mode).   The	default	 is  0
	      (zero) days, which will expunge all previously deleted messages.

       -v     Enable verbose output.

FILES
       /etc/imapd.conf
