Since it is a *beta* version and even with all the quality and care of
the Gnus bugs fixing boys and girls I opt to have the following in my
personal cron:

0 4 * * * (/bin/rm `find /home/njsf/Mail/purgeable -name "Incoming*" -ctime 3 
`) > /dev/null 2>&1

And of course I also have:

(setq mail-source-incoming-file-prefix "purgeable/Incoming_")

To place the files out of sight :)
