Sorry for the second post, but there looks like an even better
solution on the second page of the search results:
---Begin Copied Message---
This is just another addition to the other solutions :-)
Perhaps using "folder-hooks" would also be an appropriate
solution for you. In my case it is the perfect way.
I use the following:
folder-hook =trash 'push T~r>2w!~F\n\;<delete>\x'
This one deletes all mails older than 2 weeks when entering the
trash-folder.
Or:
folder-hook =lists/mutt 'push T~r>2w!~F\n\;s=lists/mutt_backup\n\x'
This one saves 2week old mails from mutt-users to mutt_backup.
