2. Delete messages over n days old.
When this box is checked, the Folder Janitor will permanently delete enclosed messages that have reached a specified age (e.g. 30 days old).

3. Delete messages once folder exceeds is n% of mailbox quota.
When this box is checked, the Folder Janitor will permanently delete enclosed messages—based on the time the message was put in the folder—to keep the folder size within a specified percentage (e.g. 5%) of the overall mailbox size.

The Folder Janitor is completely disabled for a specific folder when all checkboxes are unchecked, and Saved.
