I haven't tried recently, and I'm not in physical reach of my laptop right now, but it worked the last time I tried. Ie. it _did_ expire articles older than 7 days, but if I had some old ticked articles, the articles in between were re-fetched the next time I fetched articles into the agent. According to Bjørn Mork earlier in this thread, this should be fixed now...? > The first should delete articles on the server, the second should > not. > Hm.

You can toggle server agent status interactively in the server buffer, if that's what you're thinking about...?
