How to expire or delete old mail automatically? For example, I have a mailbox "Commercial" that holds wanted advertising; after one month, I want to automatically delete the mail (that is, I only want to keep mail younger than one month). My old Linux mail (kmail) had a mailbox feature called "expire", where I could set such a date -- it worked great. How do I do this on my Mac?
Thanks! - Andy

It works brilliantly!

Going through old mail, and I noticed that I did not thank you for this answer! So -- thank you!
Welcome
Other Linux email clients, have an "expire" function for each folder. It would be useful to have one for the Mac version.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.
Good point. Will do.
Espire or delete old mail - automatically
