No, you aren't alone. I have never been able to get the "remove
expired article" thing to work either.
You might try running "Compact Folders" and if that doesn't help, exit
TB completely, delete the .msf file and restart.
Thanks, I tried all that, but sadly the massive .msf file is simply
recreated :-(
I don't think it is a Thunderbird problem, because it works alright with
other newsgroups, and as I said, one of the Mozilla Champion confirmed
that it appears to be a particular issue with the OOo newsgroups (or
possibly the gmane server).
It is turning into a little more than just a minor annoyance - any
further comments?
Personally, I've never noticed this problem, as I've set the properties
of g.c.o. questions under news.gmaine,org to "Delete messages more than
[7] days old", which works. Oddly, I don't find any option "Remove
expired article."
