What option do I use to remove only the messages marked as deleted in the subs please?

usage: smbutil [-opts] cmd <filespec.shd>

cmd:
       l[n] = list msgs starting at number n
       r[n] = read msgs starting at number n
       x[n] = dump msg index at number n
       v[n] = view msg headers starting at number n
       V[n] = view msg headers starting at number n verbose
       i[f] = import msg from text file f (or use stdin)
       e[f] = import e-mail from text file f (or use stdin)
       n[f] = import netmail from text file f (or use stdin)
       h    = dump hash file
       s    = display msg base status
       c    = change msg base status
       R    = re-initialize/repair SMB/status headers
       D    = delete and remove all msgs (not reversable)
       d    = flag all msgs for deletion
       u    = undelete all msgs (remove delete flag)
       m    = maintain msg base - delete old msgs and msgs over max
       p[k] = pack msg base (k specifies minimum packable Kbytes)
       L    = lock a msg base for exclusive-access/backup
       U    = unlock a msg base

            [n] may represent 1-based message index offset, or
            [#n] actual message number, or
            [-n] message age (in days)

opts:
      -c[m] = create message base if it doesn't exist (m=max msgs)
      -a    = always pack msg base (disable compression analysis)
      -i    = ignore dupes (do not store CRCs or search for duplicate hashes)
      -d    = use default values (no prompt) for to, from, and subject
      -l    = LZH-compress message text
      -o    = print errors on stdout (instead of stderr)
      -p    = wait for keypress (pause) on exit
      -!    = wait for keypress (pause) on error
      -b    = beep on error
      -r    = display raw message body text (not MIME-decoded)
      -C    = continue after some (normally fatal) error conditions
      -t<s> = set 'to' user name for imported message
      -n<s> = set 'to' netmail address for imported message
      -u<s> = set 'to' user number for imported message
      -f<s> = set 'from' user name for imported message
      -e<s> = set 'from' user number for imported message
      -s<s> = set 'subject' for imported message
      -z[n] = set time zone (n=min +/- from UT or 'EST','EDT','CST',etc)
      -U[n] = set umask to specified value (use leading 0 for octal, e.g. 022)
      -#    = set number of messages to view/list (e.g. -1)
