Thanks for this... Would you mind explaining the syntax?

Also, if a folder inside /home/ftp becomes older than 3 days, what's stopping it from being deleted? I ask this as all the top level directories within /home/ftp need to remain.

CALENDARSERVER_PURGE_EVENTS(8)				    BSD System Manager's Manual 			    CALENDARSERVER_PURGE_EVENTS(8)

NAME
calendarserver_purge_events -- Darwin Calendar Server event clean-up utility SYNOPSIS
calendarserver_purge_events [--config file] [--days number] [--dry-run] [--verbose] [--help] DESCRIPTION
calendarserver_purge_events is a tool for removing old events from the calendar server. By default, events older than 365 days are removed, but the user can specify the number of days in the past to use as a cut-off. Repeating events that have any occurrences after the cut-off day are not removed. calendarserver_purge_events should be run as a user with the same priviledges as the Calendar Server itself, as it needs to read and write data that belongs to the server. OPTIONS
-h, --help Display usage information -f, --config FILE Use the Calendar Server configuration specified in the given file. Defaults to /etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist. -d, --days NUMBER Specify how many days in the past to retain. Defaults to 365 days. -n, --dry-run Calculate and display how many events would be removed, but don't actually remove them. -v, --verbose Print progress information. FILES
/etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist The Calendar Server configuration file. SEE ALSO
