I am coming here searching for something similar. But my case is a bit different. I set up a server for internal use five years ago, and our lawyers are now setting a retention policy for all internal data. So I am looking for a way to delete posts older the X years. If anyone has any ideas in a direction to explore I would appreciate the pointers.
