If those nostr1.com relays can already be used as NIP-17 inbox relays, then please keep it that way! That's a cool thing, I didn't even know about it. Me and a bunch of others, like you can see from the replies here, just want the extra option for DMs to disappear from the relays again too.

The easiest option might be to add a blanket expiry, to the relay settings. (1-2 weeks). To standardize this for nostr, we could add NIP11 display for DM expiry info. There were other options like allowing deletes of anything that you are p-tagged in, or by kind (1059 in this case). nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z mentioned it would be cool. It could be useful but seems hacky and requires a lot more custom events be sent.

The other thing to pay attention to is, we can only control the fine grain aspects of this when looking at WHO we are DMing, and if their settings use less-private or relays without this feature, you can't have your expiry. So clients need to be up front about what giftwraps are going where BEFORE sending.

If we do all these things, the NIP17 will flow. :)

Having a DM inbox relay that deletes all wraps after a month would be awesome.

what is the shortest we can do? (due to the timestamp obfuscation..) is it one month? seems a bit long.. 🌜

Configurable? We don't want people missing messages and some folks only access nostr once a week, so 1 month seems ok as a default. It could also be 90 days. The important part is to delete most of them after some time.
