Oh, yes please.

I try to stop those suckers from flying by using control s but its a real 
crapshoot as to what I get.

This also brings to mind a wish that would permit me to go thru all those 
folders sequentially somehow to weed out ancient messages that are of no 
relevance anymore.

At this time they tend to simply take up space.

I suppose their is no way to list them by date for deletion beyond some date?
