The default is @code{nil} and copying +and moving of articles behave as before; i.e., the expirable marks will +be unchanged except that the marks will be removed when copying or +moving articles to a group that has not turned auto-expire on. +@xref{Expiring Mail}. + +@item NoCeM support has been removed. + +@item Carpal mode has been removed. + +@end itemize + +@end itemize + @node Ma Gnus @subsubsection Ma Gnus -- 2.39.2
