SYNOPSIS

9       newscacheclean [-h] [-s] [-p] [--version] [-c config-file]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The  newscacheclean  command  purges  the  Cache  from NewsCache to the
13       SpoolSize parameter specified in the newscache.conf file.  The  program
14       newscacheclean  walks  through  the  directory  tree  of SpoolDirectory
15       (newscache.conf parameter) and adds every newsgroup db and every  arti‐
16       cel  file  into the purge list. Every outdated external article is also
17       inserted. Then the purge list is  sorted  by  access  time.  The  purge
18       removes  first  all  outdated external articles and then one article or
19       newsgroup database after  the  other  until  SpoolSize  (newscache.conf
20       parameter) is reached.
