There's an AppleScript (I think I found it on AppleScriptCentral?) that will
delete a whole thread. Only problem is, it will go thru the entire folder
to make sure it gets rid of the thread, instead of just checking the
date/time on the message and going forward. Not being an AppleScript
wizard, I've never attempted to fix this.
