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 '$'.
