I see. Thanks. I found gnus-group-expire-articles-1 binds
nnmail-expiry-wait to the expiry-wait group parameter. However,
Gnus doesn't seem to support the group parameter called
`expiry-wait-function' (yet). gnus-group-expire-articles-1
simply binds nnmail-expiry-wait-function to nil when expiry-wait
is specified. (I don't feel such one is very useful, though.)

I see. So, could it be `_Even if this parameter is not set, ...'?
