I need to delete #email older than ~45 days or so from the server, while keeping a local copy of all msgs (old & new). To my surprise, #Fetchmail can't handle this, while #Getmail has a "delete_after" option. Must I use Getmail?
@plathoar POP is a protocol. It's the tool that I need to come up with. Apparently #fdm & getmail can delete old msgs (POP or IMAP). I think POP3 can only reach the inbox, so ATM I'm thinking fdm with IMAP is best.
@plathoar It turns out using #FDM to delete old email from the server is a mess: https://github.com/nicm/fdm/issues/73 & it's impossible with #fetchmail. So #Getmail it is.
