I solved the automated expunge problem this way.
1. Create user postmaster.
2. Create group mailadm. Anyone in this group can work with user's
IMAP folders.
3. Add postmaster to group mailadm.
4. Run script 1 as cron job. Script 1 shuts down mail and web
services, generates a list of mailbox
I don't know if "spambin" is your real email address or not, but your
hotmail address is listed as your whois contact.

I am sysadmin of a small mail server with around 15 users, about half of
which maintain IMAP mailboxes (vice pop). I am running Red Hat 8 distro,
with the IMAP (which is believe is UW IMAP) right out of the box. My
users are uneducated/uninterested in expunging their email instead of
just deleting
