Rewriting the command with the -expirey before the -purge
(and changing purge to 1 day for testing)...
hashcash -cd -X -i -q -e 14d -p 1d -b 27 -r bikikii -f hashcash.sdb < "%x%"
has the desired result:
last_purged 060821203814
1:27:060806:bikikii::iYNtHsxuIOl3C9B1:0000000005Gj1R 1209600
1:27:060806:bikikii::Ezp/CKbBgXs1YJLM:000000000A4PRp 1209600
1:27:060807:bikikii::doOjfbu8jzc4eCLq:0000000005TxYf 1209600
Now back to 7 days for -purge and see what happens next week.
Ciao!
