I use a program call "expire" that came from comp.sources.misc a while
back to expire old mail messages on a weekly basis under SUNOS4.1 via cron.
It works quite well.  The sources (current?) are available from ftp.uu.net
under /usenet/comp.sources.misc/volume1/expire.8.Z  -- I do not know
if this is the most current version or not.
