 "head -36" != "sed -e 1,36d"

You can use "tail +37", but, IMHO, it is not useful erasing old backups
for each message.


I use a maildir/ backup (on another hard disk), and a nightly crontab:

find /archiv/Mail/Backup \
  -type f -mindepth 2 \( -mtime +6 -or -size +50k -mtime +2 \) \
  -exec /bin/rm -f {} \;

For retrieval, "mutt -f /archiv/Mail/Backup" is OK.
