Managing folders

Is there a way you can automatically remove emails from different folders. I
like to keep deleted emails for 1 month and ask my mail software to
automatically remove them after that period.

Re: Managing folders

Hi, ModelHobbies.

I suppose you know about Tools | Options | Advanced | Maintenance, and the
box to specify how many days to keep news messages.

I don't know of a similar box for emails, though. And I don't think I would
use one if I found it; I still occasionally refer to emails that I saved in
various folders from years ago. Some of them are still important (to me).
Others should have been deleted long ago, but I'm a bit of a packrat.

You can make message rules for this, but you have to apply them manually.
