You could use mail filters to achieve that. For example, I have rules to make copies of some of my IMAP mail to local folders at reception. You can setup a rule to delete mail before a specific date and apply the rule to your IMAP folders. However it doesn't look that Seamonkey supports rules like 'older than 90 days' which would be nice.
