It is all about configuration. I could configure my mail client to
delete all messages that are over 2 months old, however it is the
default that all mail messages are kept. I can just as easily tell my
news reader to ignore it's default setting and keep messages forever
and/or copy them to a separate local archive folder so I can look back
whenever I want.
