Really? Because I compiled and ran the script you originally posted and it
worked!!!!! It moved 3668 items to the deleted Items folder and every folder
in my "mailing lists" folder now has nothing older than 2 days ago. What
difference would making the above change make? It took a while to run but
that's probably because it worked on 3500+ messages the first time. I'll
wait for your answer before committing this script to a schedule, but it
works perfectly as far as I can tell.

I know nothing about AppleScript other than to copy and paste to a Script
Editor window. Oh, and I knew enough to change where you had "lists" to
"Mailing lists" since that's they way I had it in my setup. I really want to
learn one of these days.

Thank you so much for doing this Allen, I can't tell you how much I
appreciate it!
