Purging after moving accounts (zmmboxmove, zmpurgeoldmbox, zmproxypurge)

We would like to move accounts en masse to better balance storage on our mailstore servers. I am curious as to what has to be run after an account is moved with zmmboxmove. Is it necessary to run both zmpurgeoldmbox AND zmproxypurge after each account is moved? If either of the two purge commands are not run after the zmmboxmove, will the data they are supposed to purge hang around for ever or will it eventually age out?
Thanks,

I know this is anecdotal evidence, but I didn't even know about zmproxypurge and I didn't run it at all when I moved 1700 or so accounts from one single server to three different mail stores.
No problems reported with it.
