I asked this in email but I'll ask it again here

Why do you want year-old newsgroup posts? With Usenet usually if you get the last month's posts that's more than anybody will ever read.

Plus - although you can prevent folks from searching the Usenet forums if you want they still get added to the database when you rebuild your search index. That's a heck of a lot of space for something nobody's gonna read
