Hi,

I would like to use the feature "delete messages with more than X days old", because i need to reduce the space on my server.

The problem is i would like to keep emails from, for example, 5 year period (there are bussines emails that legaly i need to keep for that time), but thunderbird only let you change the default 30 days period once you activate this option.

That means thunderbird will delete all my messages with more than 30 days both localy and from my server immediatly, before I can change thet time period, and I don't want that.

Is there any way to change period time before apply the delete rule?

Thanks

Hola, Entonces no puedes configurar mas de 30 días? no se si llega a 5 años pero creería recordar que se podría aumentar a mas de 30 días, en todo caso lo que puede hacer es crear un filtro para eliminar mensajes con un determinado tiempo, ejemplo: https://es.hosting.xyz/wiki/mail/clients/thunderbird/delete-old/
