Also, if this happens only to some users, it is possible their email 
client is doing that.  Many email clients have options to automatically 
expire messages from sent mail folders (in addition to Trash/Junk type 
of folders), some come with them enabled by default, some prompt user 
for confirmation, some just go and do it behind your back.  Some email 
clients would rename sent mail folder at start of each month to 
something like INBOX.sent-mail-monthname (or 
INBOX.archive.sent-mail-monthname or something similar) and create new 
one.  Check for that too.
