But even without that confirmation, what only having recent articles made me start to wonder about, is if there is a new agent expiry mechanism in place? Does anyone know? The manual still states the same old text, ie. The Agent back end, `nnagent', doesn't handle expiry. Well, at least it doesn't handle it like other back ends. Instead, there are special `gnus-agent-expire' and `gnus-agent-expire-group' commands that will expire all read articles that are older than `gnus-agent-expire-days' days. Is that command now run automatically? And has it stopped not expiring ticked articles? Or has it in fact always expired ticked articles? Thanx! - Steinar
