[MlMt] expiring deleted and sent

[Robert Brenstein]

I have several mailboxes that show me old mails that are due to be 
deleted, some after 30 days, some 6 months, some 1 year. Notably, I do 
not use automatic deletion as I want to check them before deletion. 
Those smart mailboxes user date-received as the condition and that works 
really well. I have submitted in lighthouse an enhancement request, 
though, to be able to set how often those mailboxes update. Ideally, 
I’d like to deal with deletions only once or twice a day — the 
increasing counters prompt me (not force me but I feel compelled) to 
delete several times a day.
