Subject: nnmail-expiry-target vs. gnus-parameter:expiry-target
Date: Tue, 28 May 2002 13:12:48 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <uy9e4lnuv.fsf@cisco.com> (raw)



nnmail-expiry-target is expanded using format-time-string, whereas
gnus-parameter expiry-target is not. Since these two have very similar
function, it would be nice if they behaved consistently.

The following contains a patch to gnus-group.el which will do the same.
I'm sure it can be improved. Can someone patch it in?

regards,
-p
