If you prefer a mutt-only solution (without archivemail) you could also use a hook to mark all mails older than 30 days for deletion whenever you open the corresponding mailbox. Untested, adapt "debian" to match your mailbox name: folder-hook =debian 'push "<delete-pattern> ~d>30d\n"' Mutt will then mark older messages for deletion when you enter the mailbox and ask for confirmation when you quit mutt, change to a different mailbox or press '$'.
