Delete News Messages x days after downloading

Windows Mail, running on Vista Home Prem (fully updated), Packard Bell
BL2380iSTART, originally 1gig RAM, now 3gig.

In Tools/Options/Advanced/Maintenance/Delete News Items ticked 31 days after
downloading; doesn't seem to work.

Today, I manually deleted some 20,000 messages from November '07 dating back
to September '07 from 8 NGs I subscribe to.

Why didn't WinMail delete as requested? Is there another setting I need to
apply?

TIA Gurus out there.

foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
