I also agree with Chuq.  If one is starved for spool space, then one
can hand-expire things.  If not, then it is reasonable to keep things
like OR, comp.sources.*, comp.binaries.* (Yes, we (the CIS dept.) DO
like the binary groups, and would probably go out of our way to get
comp.binaries.macintosh even if we had to call Cleveland or UUNET) etc.
