I am using I guess the newest version of Bnews and for some reason expire is not doing it's job. I went through and found articles older than a month and I have my expire time set to 5 days. Can somebody explain what I am doing wrong?? thanks

Do those articles have explicit expiry dates in them? If so, it is legit for them to stick around until the specified dates. (It would be nice to be able to put a bound on this; C News expire provides for that, but B News expire doesn't, or didn't last I looked.) -- And the bean-counter replied, | Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology "beans are more important". | henry@zoo.toronto.edu utzoo!henry
