NAME

       expirerm - remove articles that have been expired.

SYNOPSIS

       expirerm file

DESCRIPTION

       Expirerm is a script that removes a list of files.  The specified file lists the files.	It is sorted, and then fed into a pipeline respon-
       sible for doing the removal, normally fastrm(8).  If there seemed to be a problem removing the files, then mail is sent to the news  admin-
       istrator.   If there were no problems, then file is renamed to /var/log/news/expire.list where it is kept (for safety) until the next day's
       expiration.
