unexpunge broken?

Paul already mentioned that unexpunge uses internal (dot) syntax, not  
unix (slash) syntax.  Also, your delprune command will also expunge  
all your mail, so your expunge command doesn't really do much.  You  
need to combine the two statements:

	delpruneandexpunge		cmd="cyr_expire -E 6 -X 8" at=0100

Hope that helps.
