Delete older news than.. from device?

Regarding Fetch News: when one sets "delete news downloads older than...", it removes news older than 30 days from Calibre, for example. Is it possible that Calibre also deletes these news from the Kindle device, when connected?

Apologies if this is a dumb question.

Wonderful app, thanks for all you do to make it available! Can I request that Calibre auto delete news from device as well as Calibre library?

No, I'm afraid calibre is not going ot doo that, as automatic deletion requires high ocnfidence in indentifying what to delete, and I dont have that confidence about files on devices.
