well
i didn't understand how it works
for example i have a user
i run /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cyr_expire -v -E 1 -X 1 -D 1 -p user.huang_yi
and i got
Expunging deleted messages in mailboxes older than 1 days

Expunged 0 out of 0 messages from 0 mailboxes
Removing deleted mailboxes older than 1 days
Removed 0 deleted mailboxes

this user hasn't logged since a long time then he can't have deleted 
item less than one day older
in the Deleted repertoire he has 178M of mail
but as u can see nothing was deleted

Could it be out of sync item what cyrus has "forgotten"?
