like delete any received email from 2 days ago

This isn't currently supported, I just occasionally mass delete them. It would require major changes but might be something I add in the future.

@JoeBiellik This, in theory, shouldn't be too hard.

1. Write a stand-alone entry like mail-server.js and `server.js.
2. Have the entry file delete emails that are x seconds old
3. Schedule the job (the new file), using like a cron-like tool but for docker something like Ofelia.
   • If you look at their github readme, first read the beginning, once you hit the config section, jump down to Docker Labels then scroll down further till you see the docker-compose setup

For bulk deleting emails over a particular age periodically, it could be done in app, but I think its easier to do it with external database tools and crons, as I do currently. I was imagining a way for a user to set a particular expire period per email address, which is more complex and could potentially have other users adjusting "your" email address expiry.
