<p dir="auto">Randall,</p>
<p dir="auto">Yes. This would reduce the number of rule from one per account to 1 per duration (about half the number of rules, since I use a one day duration and a two week duration on Junk and a two week and 4 week duration on Deleted Messages rules.</p>
<p dir="auto">Are the Rules name referring to the MailMate names or the actual name of the IMAP folders? For instance Mailbox refers to Deleted Messages as either an IMAP name of Deleted or Deleted Messages server names.</p>
<p dir="auto">I take it the rules work immediately at the time the rule determines a match?</p>
<p dir="auto">As to conditions, selecting the mailboxes involved in a time period as being in each specific Account’s IMAP folders (E.G. Junk) to set the “Expunge Junk 2 DAY” Rule?</p>
<p dir="auto">On the Rule setting for a date of receipt for example @14 Days after receipt (date is later than…) where do you set the number of days or weeks or months? I don’t see number field.</p>

<p dir="auto">Randall,</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks for the suggestions.</p>
<p dir="auto">So, getting the idea that one virtual mailbox can do the work of several individuals (per source), right?</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">You can. If you want different expiration periods per source mailbox, it'll be easier to have different virtual mailboxes (perhaps one per time period).</p>
<p dir="auto">Each of my auto-expunge virtual mailboxes has a mailbox condition that selects the messages to which it applies, and a few rules that do the actual deletion if the message is older than a certain amount (in my case, partially determined by tag).</p>
