Charles,

thanks

these are a user+spam spam basket, the actual messages are either in 'new'
or 'cur', depending if a particular user logged to 'spam' basket or not

does that mean that say 7 days would clear new messages after 7 days, and,
any message that is not 'new' after 7 more days, assuming I run the
command daily ?

all I want is an auto way to clear +spam baskets after x days
