Hi. I use global rules to filter e-mails.
I sign in to www.icloud.com, put in my ID etc, press the mail button, find theget action button and then there are various tabs. One is the rule tab. Then there are certain options as to what you want to do. So anyone you don't want to see can go to the trash but remember to specify what you want done in the rule options. In iCloud everything is explained. You can't do it if you are on another e-mail provider as I just use iCloud. Kawal.

You'll miss that thread. I recommend adding a thread-ID to a list (check out something like redis), then setting it to expire after 7 days. You'll need to send the offending message to a folder which a cron could pick up, check, get the ID from and then shove into redis. Probably 30 minutes of quick scripting.
