Contact form delete spam messages

Is there any way to automatically delete spam messages sent to a normal contact form after a certain amount of time? A bit like the Settings option for blog comments: Never/1day/7days/etc.

Alternatively (or as well as), being able to select multiple messages at once for deletion would be really useful.

+1 for both or either of these

Yes, the Comments app needs this porting over from Blog.

Great :)

Adding my +1 for either automatic deletion of spam (submitted to standard contact forms) after a period time, batch delete, or both! I managed to rack up two whole pages of spam within a day of launching a site redesign. (Though — yay! Spam detection works!)
