When entering a group you only see unread and ticked articles. When
entering a group with 'C-u <SPC>' you see all articles. There are
situations that I want to see all articles, but what is more useful is
all articles without expired articles (I did not expire them for
nothing). Is this possible?

Does putting

(display . [not expire])

in your group parameters do what you want? I think that's how I set it
up. `/ w' will reveal the expirable articles if you do want to see
them.

No, because this shows all articles except expired when entering the
group with <SPC>. What I would like is that when I enter the group with
<SPC> I only see the unread and ticked messages (just as the default is)
and when I enter with 'C-u <SPC>' that instead of all the messages all
the messages without the expired are shown.
