That's okay with the new format of your messagebase since Yarn 0.92. It
would only shrink when using rebuild, but I won't recommend doing that anymore
on a regular basis since it resets your expireration date. I do it once
or twice a month, whem my news.dat grows to over 150MB....

I'm still using version 1.1 with Warp 3 and Fix 22. Runs fine though I
wonder why vsoup touches the "areas" file when sending mail (with -i
-s). This caused some trouble here.
