In Mutt, I just learned;), that one might delete messages more than 1 week old like this:
D ~ >1w

How might I do this from the command line in Mutt or another application?

Another quesiton. Would Barrendero help? Judging from the package description, Barrendero would let me delete older messages while keeping fresh ones to feed to sa-learn. The description follows:
Package: barrendero (1.0-1.2) delete messages on the spool dir depending on their age
Barrendero is intended to limit the disk space wasted in the spool directory. It deletes mail messages depending on their age, and has the ability to send warnings and reports to the users, to make full and partial backups, and to have different allowed ages on a per-user basis.
Warning and report messages are customizable and can be translated easily in order to make this package useful in any environment.
This way of handling mail has an advantage over the traditional 'quota' system: quotas make the end user lose new mail, whereas barrendero deletes old mail, so that new mail is always available.
