Hi all,
How do I set the rss reader so that it doesn't keep so many podcasts? Also, how do I tell it how many epsodes of something to download? For example, say I only want to keep the last epesode of main menu and I only want to download the last two epesodes? 
All help is appreciated.  Step by step instructions are welcome.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,

You can modify each subscription and tell it how may days to keep issues.
It sounds like your subscriptions are set to three days.

Note this value is from the time the issue was downloaded, not its date.
You may see Sunday papers return because they are kept all week.

Subject: [icon-discuss] Archiving Behavior with Newspapers

Hello fellow icon and braille plus users:

I have a question about the icon's default archiving behavior with
newspapers downloaded from bookshare.org. I've been downloading the
Washington Post on a daily basis for the past several days. When I went to
sleep last night, I had issues for January 26, 27, and 28th available to me. 

When I woke up this morning, even before downloading today's issue, I only
saw the issues for January 27 and 28th. Did the January 26th issue just
magically vanish at the stroke of midnight; or, more accurately, at the
instant my icon realized it had been woken up on the 29th? Lastly, if there 
is a default archiving protocol which erases previous issues of a magazine
or periodical, can it be modified, and if so, how.

Thanking you all in advance for any responses to this inquiry.

John
