Use the file component option "filter" [1], not the filter EIP. Implement the org.apache.camel.component.file.GenericFileFilter class. Create a new Calendar instance, subtract 30 days and take the time in millis. If it's higher than the "CamelFileLastModified" header value, return true. Otherwise, return false.
