    Ipurge looks nice at its description. But it returns in any case to me
    the "help/usage" output, even if I enter the most simple params as
    described.

    On my testmachine 'dev':
    dev:~# cyradm --user=cyrus localhost
    IMAP Password:
                  localhost> lm
    user/miro (\HasChildren)
    user/miro/SPAM (\HasNoChildren)
    user/miro/Test (\HasNoChildren)

    dev:~# ipurge
    usage: ipurge [-f] [-s] [-C <alt_config>] [-x] [-X] [-i] {-d days | -b
    bytes|-k Kbytes|-m Mbytes}
            [mboxpattern1 ... [mboxpatternN]]
            there are no defaults and at least one of -d, -b, -k, -m
            must be specified
            if no mboxpattern is given ipurge works on all mailboxes
             -x specifies an exact match for days or size
             -f force also to delete mail below user.* and INBOX.*
             -s skip over messages that are flagged.
             -X use delivery time instead of date header for date matches.
             -i invert match logic: -x means not equal, date is for newer,
    size is for smaller.

    This is just a test machine, so I try:

    dev:~# ipurge -f -d 0
    usage: ipurge [-f] [-s] [-C <alt_config>] [-x] [-X] [-i] {-d days | -b
    bytes|-k Kbytes|-m Mbytes}
    ...... and so on

    dev:~# ipurge -f -d 0 user/miro/Test
    usage: ipurge [-f] [-s] [-C <alt_config>] [-x] [-X] [-i] {-d days | -b
    bytes|-k Kbytes|-m Mbytes}
    ...... and so on
    dev:~# ipurge -f -d 0 user.miro.SPAM
    usage: ipurge [-f] [-s] [-C <alt_config>] [-x] [-X] [-i] {-d days | -b
    bytes|-k Kbytes|-m Mbytes}
    ...... and so on

    So all of these don't work.
    What's wrong here?
