Sure, ctl_deliver is just a command specifically for the delivery
database.

Depends on the format of the file.  Is the delivery database Berkley,
flat, or skiplist? [the "file" command can probably identify the type if
it isn't explicitly declared in imapd.conf).  

On the other hand - what are you trying to do?  There isn't really
anything all that interesting in delivery.db.

Doesn't have anything to do with "trash";  trash is a [IMNSHO] *very*
misguided MUA (Mail User Agent / Client) "feature".  cyr_expire deletes
from the server messages and/or mailboxes that have been
expunged/deleted (for messages) or deleted (for mailboxes).

Only -E has to do with delivery.db

-X and -D only mean anything if you have delayed delete enabled (which
has nothing to do with delivery.db).

You can add the "-v" option if you want to see more info about what
cyr_expire is doing.
