I wrote a PERL script to do it. Runs as a cron job.
If you are good with PERL, then have a look at Mail::Internet, Mail::Header, Mail::Folder::Maildir (or what ever type of folder you use)
And I used Date::Manip to figure out how old messages are. The scripts not that big. At least if you write your own you have full control over what it's doing.
