[kdepim-users] Expire problem with kmail 1.9.10

I have a problem.  One of my mail hosting services (account alexion.com) 
filters spam and counts it against my quota.  This is a high spam account 
with an excess of 1000 spams per day.  It takes little more than a day to 
exceed my quota.  

While I retrieve alexion.com mail via gmail, it only retrieves the inbox from 
its server.  I cannot turn off this spam filtering or configure it.

To get around the problem, I have set up an alexion.com IMAP account in kmail.  
I can go into the folder and empty it periodically.  That works fine.  I 
tried to automate this by setting an expiration of 1 day on that folder, but 
it doesn't seem to be working as it usually does.

That is, If I right click the folder and select Expire... and then ok the 
dialog, day old messages are deleted, but periodic automatic expiration 
doesn't seem to happen.

Do I have this configured wrong, or is the feature broken?

Is there something more effective I can do with filters?  I haven't found a 
false positive worth saving.
