dovecot - Mar 2014 - Doveadm?

I have a question?
Is it possible that with doveadm delete all but the last x-number of 
messages in a folder. For example to retain the last 200 messages in the 
folder.
If it is possible, how do you do it?
Something like "doveadm expunge -u jane.doe at example.org mailbox
xxx"

Thank you!

doveadm search -u jane.doe at example.org mailbox INBOX | cut -d" "
-f2 |
head -n -200 | tr '\n' , | xargs -n1 doveadm expunge -u 
jane.doe at example.org mailbox INBOX uid

basically, get all uid's and use head to cut out all but the last 200, 
turn that into a comma separated list, and pass to dovadm expunge.

Test it first!
