<p dir="auto">TL;DR - I'd like to be able to fire off the mail rules for a given folder once per day.</p>
<p dir="auto">Longer explanation:</p>
<p dir="auto">I have a server that sends me status emails. A <em>lot</em> of status emails. And I need to receive these status emails not because I want to read every single one, but because if something goes sideways I need to be able to poke through the messages for clues / hints.</p>
<p dir="auto">I don't need to keep these messages longer than a couple of weeks - 30 days max.</p>
<p dir="auto">And I have other situations where I'll get 3 or 4 messages for the same thing. Amazon order placed, Amazon order shipped, Amazon order delayed, Amazon order delivered being a good example. I only need to keep the last one.</p>
<p dir="auto">So I have some existing rules that I can fire off manually which will look for stuff with certain subject lines / senders that's older than 30 days or so, and clean those up - but I still have to run them manually.</p>
<p dir="auto">I'm more than happy to use cron, launchd, or some sort of system automation to tell MailMate to do this if that's what's required. Or if there's a way in the software itself, that would be wonderful as well.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any thoughts?</p>
