What storage method are you using?

That's fairly normal. All those expired articles are still being retained
in your history file. You may want to check /remember/ in expire.ctl and
possibly reduce it somewhat (making the matching reduction to artcutoff in
inn.conf).
How long has the server been running and accepting articles? And what
storage capacity is nearly full, overview or the regular spool? What
overview method are you using?
