I was wondering. Is there a way to force calibre to delete old news feeds? I noticed on the scheduler it says delete more than 1 day; however, I can't seem to get it to work the way I assume it should. I notice I will have news feeds dated for instance sept 9 then 10th and 11th.

My question is more of this: Is there a way to make it only keep the latest instance of a news feed regardless of the date. Like look at the modification date/time and only keep the newest one? I take and download news feeds for like the ajc and so forth several times throughout the day and find myself having to manually delete the old ones in the process.

If the option doesn't exist would it be possible to implement in a future release?
Thanks.
