Clean up script for tmp files

The latest version, 4.86.4 seems to clean up most of these.

If you do install that version, also get the latest TNEF.pm from the MailScanner git repository to solve the issue of loads of tnef* files being created and not deleted.

Cheers,

Phil

Subject: Clean up script for tmp files

I know the subject was discussed on the mailing list several times but i didn't find the ultimate solution.

Does anyone have a super duper cleanup script for all the files in :

/tmp
for files like  tmp.DPhoj31724

/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp
for files like  .spamassassin3805xUDKuUtmp
                 MailScanner.0aOrDx
                 tmp.IKiiOy6683

They are seriously clogging up my filesystem and slowing down the system.

I tried to script something based on the age of the file but it didn't work (maybe because most are zero byte files).

Thanks!

Remco
