Hi
being very pleased with my initial nnrss experiences, there's a couple
of questions I hope one or the other of you can enlighten me on:
* apparently, nnrss keeps it's own cache of 'articles' in News/rss .
Of course I now wonder whether it is subject to the usual expiry
mechanism. Especially, if articles are not expired, how do you keep
that cache lean?
* so, even if expiry works the same like on news or mail groups, do
marks work the same as well? More specifically, are dormant
resp. ticked articles not subject to expiry?
Would be great if things really worked that way, i.e. the standard
expiry mechanism applies but does not delete dormant/ticked articles
...
Thanks very much, Bruno.

Yes.

I use
(setq gnus-total-expirable-newsgroups "\\`nnrss:")
(setq nnmail-expiry-wait 7)
(setq nnmail-expiry-wait-function
(lambda (group)
(cond ((string-match "spam" group) 3)
((string-match "\\`nnrss:" group) 60)
(t nnmail-expiry-wait))))

Very nice, especially the way you implemented different expiry wait
times (I think that's what kept confusing me, that although those vars
carry 'nnmail' in their names they still apply to other backends as
well).
Thanks very much for your pointers, Bruno.
