ok what about rotating first in first out queue. Say we get 1 spam email a
day for seven days. I would like on the 8th day to delete messages that are
over 7 days old and so on for each day. How do we do that.

By having an email queue you have to sort through all those emails all over
again (every once in a while), even though its not in your inbox, its still
in your face and taken up your time.
