That should never happen normally, unless you changed your expire.conf 
rules recently or ran a tellnews command
like rebuild_index or rebuild_piles, have you done any of those, or 
anything similar?

As a side issue I do suggest you decrease your pile 1 size a bit, it's easy 
to allocate too much storage to non binaries these
days (with such large spools) and it is generally better not to.
