Subject: Turn expiry on for nnselect groups
X-Git-Tag: emacs-29.0.90~2024
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=62d97d4afd4a13cb2cd0f7eacbc4b5af1d620cf7;p=emacs.git

Turn expiry on for nnselect groups

Articles in (persistent) groups from the gnus/nnselect backend will
now be run through the expiry process upon exit, like other persistent
groups. Expiry is not on by default for ephemeral nnselect groups but
may be turned on with nnselect-allow-ephemeral-expiry set to t.

* lisp/gnus/nnselect.el (nnselect-request-expire-articles): Make
article expiry work.
(nnselect-allow-ephemeral-expiry): New variable.
* doc/misc/gnus.texi (Creating Search Groups): Document
nnselect-allow-ephemeral-expiry.

+Unlike persistent groups, ephemeral groups by default do not run

 So you just performed a search whose results are so fabulous you
 wished you had done a persistent search rather than an ephemeral one?
 No problem; you can create such a group by calling
