I'll go ahead and post what I have as it relates to 2.1.4, and point
out that held message expiration in 2.1.7 already exists but could use
minor improvements.
I don't have a lot of time to work on it right now, and as I started to
think about putting together clean diffs against 2.1.7, I observed that
my changes are *almost* obsolete: sometime after 2.1.4, a per-list
config parameter for "max_days_to_hold" was added, and bin/checkdbs
uses it to expire held messages. But it supports only discard, and not
reject/comment or approve. Also, it does not deal with stale held
messages whose lists have since been deleted.
See patch #1394949.
