I just submitted a patch that will allow you to say

(expiry-target . nnmail-fancy-expiry-target)
(nnmail-fancy-expiry-targets '(("from" ".*" "nnfolder:mygroup" "%Y-%b")))

in the group's parameter and the right thing would happen.

Using the gnus-parameters variable you can probably automate it for
all your groups.
