This works for me, relies on archivemail.
Edit the script to reflect your environment.
#!/bin/bash
#
# Usage:
# age_spam_quarantine
DAYS=5 # Messages left in quarantine
older
# than this many days will be
# deleted.
DATA=/var/spool/dspam/data # DSpam data directory
ARCHIVEMAIL="/usr/bin/archivemail" # Path to utility
# For each user mailbox...
for mbox in `find ${DATA} -follow -name *mbox`
do
if [ -s $mbox ]; then
# Tell archivemail to remove the messages.
${ARCHIVEMAIL} --days=${DAYS} --delete --include-flagged --quiet
$mbox
fi;
done
D.
