How to delete cache based on expires headers?

[António P. P. Almeida]

Why you want to do this? nginx can manage expiration/cache-control headers
all by itself.

As soon as the defined max-age is set it returns a upstream status of
EXPIRED until it fetches a fresh
page from upstream.

Deleting won't buy you anything in terms of content freshness.
