Body: <p>I have the problem, that a bounce mailbox I am using ran full, and it's kind of hard to monitor , since the joblog of CiviCRM needs to be watched (Bounce Mail Cronjob).</p>
  
  <p>Since Civi is managing the mailbox anyways, and moves mails to CiviMail/processed and CiviMail/ignored, shouldn't CiviCRM clean up afterwards and delete old mails? Or shouldn't there be at least an option for that?</p>
  
  <p>Maybe there is an extension implementing that, but I haven't found anything yet.</p>

  We integrated that into an extension, found here at [github](https://github.com/systopia/de.systopia.mailingtools). Retention can be configured in days for each folder.
  
  Extension is still alpha, handle with care.
