Hmm, sorry, two questions for the Gnus newsgroup or someone else.
Usually, Lars and the other Gnus gurus know their RFCs very well, so
I´m a bit surprised. Maybe my method isn´t the right one...

Then hurry, a release is maybe not too far away (not days, rather
weeks; just like Debian now :-).

Hmm. At least, it *appends*, and doesn´t overwrite. I guess that
would need a (user-)function.

(remove-hook 'gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook
'gnus-summary-expire-articles)
That belongs to the setting below and seems to suggest that having
it on the hook function for exiting the summary is the default.
;;* Do the expiry every time I've been idle for more than 30 minutes
;;*================================
(gnus-demon-add-handler 'gnus-group-expire-all-groups 30 30)
You can of course hook gnus-summary-expire-articles to any other
hook. To see what hooks are there:
C-h a gnus.*hook
I´d call that a wealth ;-)
As a warning, that sentence from the manual:
| If you use adaptive scoring (@pxref{Adaptive Scoring}) and
| auto-expiring, you'll have problems. Auto-expiring and adaptive scoring
| don't really mix very well.
I´m using total-expire.
HTH,
Colin
