Storage Age option

I have recently cancelled my subscription to Easynews, and acquired a Diamond account with Giganews. Giganews has stated that they presently have more than 3 years of newsgroup message retention, and growing.

What is the currently the best setting of Newsbin's Storage Age option with the Giganews servers if I don't want to expire/remove any messages from Newsbin's database until the messages are no longer available from Giganews?

Does a setting of "0" mean that no messages will be automatically expired/removed/deleted from my Newsbin database until the message is expired/removed/deleted from Giganews' server?

Maybe 1200 today and then expand 100 days every 100 days.

As far as I know, giganews isn't purging anymore.
