Expire says: Group not matched (removed?) alt.techno-shamanism -- Using default expiration Group not matched (removed?) misc.computers.forsale -- Using default expiration Group not matched (removed?) de.rec.sf.startrek -- Using default expirationYOU DID NOTHING WRONG! That just means that you've removed those newsgroups groups and expire is slowly removing articles from the spool as they expire. Eventually the articles will all have been deleted and so will these messages. Here's a neat trick to make deleted groups go away at the next expire instead of hanging around waiting for their articles to expire in a timely manner. Using this combination of lines at the *start* of expire.ctl: *:A:0:0:0 *:U:0:7:31 *:M:0:14:365will cause groups which are neither moderated nor unmoderated to be discarded - the only such groups are deleted ones.
