Is there a mail-retrieve-program which can be customized to delete messages on server after a period of time ?
take a look at fetchmail, and man fetchmail.
I use archivemail against my imap server to keep my mailing lists trimmed to just the past 2 weeks worth of messages
I just have the following in my crontab:
# m h dom mon dow command # auto archive debian-user messages over 14 days old 40 8 * * * archivemail -q -d 14 --delete imap://mrroach:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX.debian-user
HTH

It looks to me that archivemail is a better solution, sinse fetchmail can only delete after a n=number_of_messages (if I didn't read the man wrong.)
