This article was previously published under Q249853
SYMPTOMS
When you use Microsoft Commercial Internet System (MCIS) News version 2.0, you may set expiration policies on an NNTP newsgroup based on:
- Article age limit ("Article Older than" option in the Expiration property sheet)
- Total newsgroup directory size limit ("Combined group Size" option)
- Article age and newsgroup size limits ("Both" option)
When you define NNTP "Combined group Size" or "Both" expiration policies, the memory usage of the "Internet Information Services" process (Inetinfo.exe) grows every time the expiration runs.
