Hi, all,
I'm sorry if this question is a bit too elementary or intrusive for this
group. My health is seriously failing, and I'm trying to clean up old
messages are on my Mac for others who will inherit the machine. I have
many thousands of messages, divided into many hundreds of folders,
accumulated over years.
I've done some poking into it, and I know I can go from folder to
folder, delete all the messages, and then use some external shell
command to really delete them, but frankly, this is a bit overwhelming
for me. Is there a way (or a script that comes close to) letting me just
delete and really remove all files older than a certain date or anything
like that?
I know this violates the "look it up and figure it out" doctrine, but
frankly, I just don't have that kind of energy anymore.
Note that I also have copies of most of these messages on various IMAP
servers, so I'm not completely erasing the past ... just trying to clean
up some computers.
Thank you!
