However, no such moving or deletion takes place. All of the old issues since
mid january still clog up my kindle. [...]
The User Guide certainly says that back issues beyond 7 should vanish but my experience is that this only applies to paid subscriptions, not to anything that is formatted as a newspaper.

I have been using

"A version of today's Guardian or Observer for the Kindle"
http://mythic-beasts.com/~mark/rando...an-for-kindle/

and have had to delete manually.
Do you have a cite for "back issues folder" ?
