Well,
CVSMailer is not using the CVS temp dir at all so it will not be the
cause of the problem. The only other thing I can think of is that CVS
for some reason feels that it has left a process behind and is not
releasing the temp dir for that reason. CVSMailer (first invocation)
launches itself in a separate process in order to later collect the
data that was combined from several CVS call to loginfo.
But this process is detached from CVS and should not matter.

Maybe if you scheduled a task in the middle of the night to clar out
the unwanted folders?
