I do, but I'd like some things to get deleted, not archived.  For
example, some spam does find its way into my inbox, and a lot of my
work email is of only short-term interest.

I can do an explicit B DEL to delete messages, but it would be nice if
things I marked as E would be deleted after some time, but everything
alive after a longer amount of time got archived.  Sort of a
"total-archive".

Nothing is ever a total loss; it can always serve as a bad example.
