I wonder: if a message is marked as read in a total-expirable group,
then this message is expirable, right? Now, if you move the article
to another group, should it be expirable in the target group, as well?
By the same token, moving a message marked as read from a
non-total-expirable group to a total-expirable group might mean that
we have to mark it dormant or something, right?
What do you guys think about this?
