Using exim for this is almost certainly the wrong approach. If a user gets
1000 messages in a day, do you really want to consume the disk I/O required
for searching their entire mailbox every time a message is received? I
should think not.

Set up a daily cron job with for maildir in whatever; do find
$maildir/cur/ -not -name '*T' -ctime 90 -exec rm {} \; done or something.
