Summary: make sure you're expiring all groups, including alt
Xref: mnetor news.admin:1210 news.sysadmin:418 news.software.b:889

This discussion prompted me to take a peek in our history file,
and I noticed a bunch of entries that should have been deleted
long ago.  We expire with -n comp,misc,rec, etc., and I never
added "alt" to the list when alt started.  I also discovered
we weren't having it delete "to", which gets the occasional test
posting.

So, if you're expiring with -n, make sure you're catching "alt",
as well as any local groups and other bits 'n' pieces.
