I see you are correct Robin. Only Junk and Rubbish can be set up to delete.
But I still cannot get Rubbish to delete after 1 month.

I don’t think you can configure the "Sent mail" folder to empty automatically only the Junk and Bin mailboxes can do this. Also each account has to be configured individually vis-à-vis emptying the Junk and Bin mailboxes automatically.

And still happens on my M4 iMac. I have emails (In Mail) set to delete after 1 month in Rubbish and Sent folders. But this has never worked. So I still do this manually about every month. Anyone any idea how to correct this please ? I have searched through all Mail options and cannot find a clue.
