Deleting old maildir messages, is what I'm doing OK?

I do, and I try to be ruthless doing it. Since I copy every single piece 
of email into my IMAP 'bak' mailfolder, where it sits for 180 days 
before it is automatically deleted, I make sure that I can get back 
anything I might delete by mistake or modify the wrong way.  Even though 
I still have thousands and thousands of older email that I want to 
eventually tackle (meaning look through and delete), you know, when I 
get the time...  (LOL).
