I can think of a couple of ideas. First, you could set the age of the files
in that area to something low, such as 30 days. Mystic could remove the older
ones before there are any issues.

Another idea, I haven't done anything like this yet but, write a script that
would move the older files into another file area. That way you could keep
the older files, if you'd like, and only have the newest ones available in
that file echo.
