[leafnode-list] Re: Does 'expire' really mean what it says?
Sry, answered your subject line :(
Was reading on my damn phone. POS Blackberry (just like the user to blame
the device, aint it?)
What version of leafnode BTW? (not that I think it matters but it could be
relevant, I use the 2.0 beta branch and from what I recall (I dont expire
much, I keep a BIG archive) it deletes everything older than the expired
date.
