Being paranoid, I like to keep things around a while to protect
against accidents. Accordingly, I run the following as a 'cron' job
every night:
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
# clean my mail reading temporaries
cd /home/ht/Mail
echo -n 'Before: '
du -s .
find . -name 'Incoming*' -mtime +10 -exec rm {} \;
echo -n 'After: '
du -s .
