Is there anyway in which every mailing list that I have can be set to
'auto-expire' and just delete old mails that are expirable without
intervention from myself please? I have this set in my .gnus -
╭────
│(setq nnmail-expiry-wait 35)
╰────
which doesn't seem to be working.

What I'm currently doing, as a workaround -
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
/o RET to get all old messages, then /m O RET so that you just see the "O"
messages.  Then go to the top of the buffer and do "C-u 5000 E" to mark
everything as "E". Then B-e to expire messages, and q to close the group.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

What I would like is something that is auto-marking them as "E" as I've
read them, so that in the fullness of time they are expired and
deleted.

Also, when I get up in the morning and go to the gnus buffer, I press
"g" to get all available emails, which gets my pop3 emails and my imap
emails, but how can I also check for any new articles in my rss feeds
please, as this is not currently being done?

Thanks
Sharon.
