Inews in 2.10.2 uses the value DFLTEXP as when to consider an article too
old. What I've done is turn this into a new define (TOO_OLD) that I can
set independently of my expires. The fix is trivial and I've passed it to
Rick for inclusion in his next posting of bug fixes for 2.10.2. Another
things I've done is cause inews to save old articles in the group
'obsolete' instead of 'junk' because I find it easier to keep an eye on why
articles are being zapped that way...
