I seem to be accumulating a large number of files in

The .evolution/cache/http caches the html pages that are view in
evolution (as mails).

Is this cache supposed to be cleared automatically, and if not, is
there a way to clear it on command, other than just deleting the files?
Is it safe to just delete the files?
You can delete these files, no problem. But they should actually be
deleted. And as far as i have noticed they are deleted. So am not sure
what the issue might be. probably its some old stuff which remained
after an upgrade something (just guessing!!)

AFAIK, the cache continues to build again -- even after removing the
entire contents of the directory. I am using evo 2.4.2.1. Expunge or Empty
trash still leaves http content in one of the myriad number files under
cache/http. Should this be a bug report? Or do the maintainers monitor
this thread?
