I've never done this, but useradd -D -e expire_date -f inactive_days might do approximately what you want.
I finally got a chance to start playing around with this today. Yes, the information you provided combined with a reading of the following:

and I am close to accomplishing my goal. I now have the useradd program defaults set to my expiration requirements. And with the script provided at the link above, creating users should be even easier.
However, I'm still confused as to how to apply the password max age policy to existing users. I'm sure it's in the documentation, but I'm just not making the connection.
