If you want this sort of auto-expiry from your news/email you want to
use Gnus. Gnus is the Emacs newsreader, and is versatile and powerful to
the extreme. It can be used for email, and by treating email as news,
with a configurable expiration setting you're in effecting expiring
email (i.e., deleting) as you wish. If I weren't using Mutt/slrn/vim I'd
use Gnus, Emacs. One cool feature I like is its ability to display
_underlined_, /italics/, *bold* in the actual form, not a color coded
equivalent. Pretty swift.
