You could write a script to shutdown mailscanner, run tmpwatch to clean out files older than a certain amount of days and then restart mailscanner.
Probably more of a mailscanner issue than a Centos one.

the only reasonable answer to your question is, something is broken on
your configuration, and the mailscaner/sendmail stack isn't performing
according to plan.
has nothing to do with CentOS, actually.
