Mailbox Rules

I have created rules that take emails (mainly subscriptions) after a certain date received from the inbox and move them to a seperate Mailbox (x.ToBeDeleted) to look at later.

I want to automate the deletion of the emails from the Mailbox (x.ToBeDeleted) after 30 days.

I cannot run a rules just on this mailbox as it will pick up all emails.

Is there a way I can do this without having to go into the Mailbox and manually delete emails?

Cheers

Mail Rules applied to single folder 📂 Is it possible to create a rule that applies to my INBOX only? I am creating a rule that would move any messages over 365 days old to the trash. My my intention is to move messages I need to keep permanently to the ARCHIVE FOLDER. Then never delete anything from my INBOX. I just want to leave them and have the rule automatically delete everything over a year old. This way all of my mail is there for a year. After that it gets purged. If I move them to the trash when I’m finished reading them then they would delete after 30 days.

Creating Rules for emails I don't have a Mac computer or an iPhone anymore but I still use my iCloud email address regularly. I am in the process of cleaning out my inbox and applying some rules to junk emails. My question is: What is the format for adding more than one email to the same rule? Example: If I want to create one rule for all the emails I deem "Trash" instead of having to do each email address individually. I have over 100 emails I need to route to trash and didn't want to have to create a different rule for each one. Example 2: Walmart has a different email address for each of their products. There are newsletters, account emails, and departmental emails like photos and pharmacy etc. If I want to route the important ones like the account and pharmacy to a folder and route the newsletters and junk to the trash, how can I add their 2 emails to the same rule? I've tried several different methods, based on the formats of other email providers. Some do it automatically when you press enter. Some require you to insert a comma or a semicolon between the emails, some require the word "OR" between the emails. I've tried all these methods with iCloud and nothing seems to work.
