> How do the rest of you handle cleaning out really big mail folders?

1.  collpased threads

#collapse threads
folder-hook . "push \eV"
set collapse_unread=3Dyes
set uncollapse_jump=3Dyes

2.  delete duplicates

#Delete duplicates
folder-hook . "push D~=3D<enter>"

3.  scoring to delete old Mails either not related to myself directly
    or flagged as important (which is the criterium to keep mails):

# index_format is of course optional
set index_format=3D"%4C %2M%Z%2N %[%y%m%d] %-17.17F (%3l) %s"
set score_threshold_delete=3D0
set score_threshold_flag=3D30
set score_threshold_read=3D15
unscore *
score '~A' 20
score '~=3D' -9999
score '~P|~p|~Q' 20
# delete unflagged and non-me-related mails oder than 14 days
folder-hook . 'score "~=3D|(!(~p|~P|~Q|~F)~d>14d)" -9999'
# Flagged as !
color index cyan default '~F'

4.  archiving the surviving mails (using <Esc S>) to a folder save.
    plus foldername:

#Delete old; archive
macro   index   \eS       "1\n<collapse-all><untag-pattern>~A\n<tag-pattern=
>(~P|~p|~Q|~F)~r>3w\n;s\n" "Delete old; archive"=20
macro   pager   \eS       "q1\n<collapse-all><untag-pattern>~A\n<tag-patter=
n>(~P|~p|~Q|~F)~r>3w\n;s\n" "Delete old; archive"
folder-hook . 'save-hook . =3Dsave.%B'


I hope this helps!
