It is to a large extent, thanks for your kind reply Marton!

I am furthermore looking for a scriptable solution that will move all
email older than X years from one local imap folder to another (which is
then rsynced to a file server).

Looking forward to this list memeber's suggestions!
Your help is much appreciated,
best, 
Peter
