An alias is a short-name that you can enter in place of a longer E-mail
address.  Is that what you meant?

If you use <delete-pattern> (bound to "D" by default), you can give it a
pattern of "! ~N ! ~O", which means "Not new and not old".  It sets the
delete flag on all the messages meeting that criteria.

Maybe instead of "alias" you meant "macro", like so:

    macro index ~  "<delete-pattern>!~N !~O<enter>"
