Yes, we do have plans to exploit the automatic expiration on the ADSM server in
our next release.

Until that capability becomes available, you can achieve some automation by
writing a script on
the exchange server to pipe the output of an exchange agent query command to a
file and then issuing
delete commands for all objects older than a certain date.
