Hi,
I've been using Gnus for some time now and really like it a lot.

Now there's one thing I was trying to do today, but haven't found the
"handle" yet.

I have this one nnmail group that holds messages from a mailing
list. I haven't (so far) set anything that has to do with
expiration. Now this group has gotten quite large and I want to delete
all messages older than let's say 90 days.

How can I talk Gnus into marking all messages older than 90 days as
expirable and then expire them?

TIA,
Christian Schmitt
