Hello,
I am using gnus-cache and gnus-agent features. That works pretty
good *BUT* I really don't know how to tweak my system such a way,
that articles can be expired through the Agent and not be
downloaded again (when expired).
So what I am looking for is simply recipes on:
1. what to fetch
2. how to fetch only new matching predicates
3. have new predicates.
Goals: free space on my HDD:
,----[ df -k ]
| /dev/hda9 19228276 18084972 166556 100% /home
`----
:/
What I want is then, a good predicate which can:
1. only fetch not too old articles (less than 30 days)
2. not too bad scored
And then I want "agentized articles" to be expired after, say,
one semester.
Doable ?

Hi Xavier,
For an automatic purge of expirable articles, maybe you can set a hook at
gnus exit that will call gnus-agent-expire ?
It will purge articles that are either old enough or explicitly marked
"expirable". You then have to tweak the expiration period.
But I am not sure to understand exactly what you need...
HTH,
Sébastien Kirche

Hmm, gotta check the code then...
