Remove emails from an account via API

[eduardojonck]

Good afternoon,

I need to clean my email inbox from time to time because they are application accounts. The email server will not be used for users, but for applications. So I want to clean all emails, for example, and leave the last 30 days. Is there a way to do this using the existing API or does it have to be done with an email client via CLI? Any other ideas?

Hello,

There is auto-expunge but it only works on the Junk and Trash folders. In order to delete messages from other folders you'll need to create a script that uses either JMAP or IMAP. Probably JMAP would be easier as you can do it in a single HTTP POST request.
