 Even though this looks much like lisp code, nothing here is actually
 @code{eval}ed.  The lisp reader is used to read this form, though, so it

 The number of days before removing old NoCeM entries from the cache.
 The default is 15.  If you make it shorter Gnus will be faster, but you
 might then see old spam.

+Using NoCeM could potentially be a memory hog.  If you have many living
