I am unfortunately still struggling with this issue.
I've tried setting both expunge_mode and delete_mode to both delayed and
immediate, neither helps. Again, expunging is not working except for the Trash
folder, yet I see no differences for the permission and settings for this
folder compared to any other.
I am not seeing the `/vendor/cmu/cyrus-imapd/delete` annotation anywhere, on
any folder, so I'm wondering if perhaps this is why folders are not being
deleted from the filesystem, except for the Trash folder (which also does not
show this annotation).
I've tried setting this key-value pair, which apparently is inherited, on for
example my top-level mailbox, to no avail. I keep getting permission denied
errors (whether running cyradm as myself or user `cyrus`, whether using the
`--private` flag or not). The following output exemplifies this (cyradm as user
`cyrus`):
cyrus@s1:~$ cyradm localhost

As I understand it, the documentation on cyr_expire states that this specific
annotation *must* be set for messages to be deleted from the filesystem. Yet I
cannot seem to set it, nor to I see it set on for example my user.morse.Trash
folder, the one place where expunging is working as expected when cyr_expire
runs.
So, I'm really at a loss here after many hours of investigation. Please help
folks.
