Hi,

short answer, pressed for time:  The help for `diary-mail-entries' has an 
example script: "C-h f diary-mail-entries".

But I think this can be handled by the "midnight.el" library, already included: 
 "run something every midnight, e.g., kill old buffers".

More time next week.  Hope this helps.  Don't forget the excellent GNU Emacs
manual...

Toto
