Is there any chance of convincing your sysadmin to use Maildirs for mailbox 
storage?  If you use Maildir you could run something similar to this via cron:

  find /home/*/Maildir/.Spambox/{new,cur}/ -mtime 7 -exec rm -f {} \;

Where .Spambox is the Maildir that the .qmail-spam delivers confirmation 
bounces.  Messages would be deleted after 7 days.

If you are using mbox it may be a little more difficult.  I am not sendmail 
guru, but I believe that you can use procmail or safecat to deliver into
Maildirs.

Good luck,

Cory
