Sympa folks:

I've tried to create a custom version of the expire_bounce.daily.task, with 
a bounce expiration time of 30 days instead of 10, and had some trouble.  I 
thought that I should copy it to etc/task_models and customize it there, 
but that had no effect -- it still created the default task.  Only by 
editing the distribution file in bin/etc/global_task_models was I able to 
change it, and I assume that customization will be overwritten the next 
time I upgrade Sympa.

I also tried creating it in etc/task_models and giving it a different name, 
and specifying that new name in sympa.conf with expire_bounce_task, but 
that just resulted in an ERROR task file.  Did I just make a syntax 
mistake?  The custom file was called expire_bounce.npo-daily.task, and 
sympa.conf said:
   expire_bounce_task     npo-daily

What is the correct way to create a custom version of a default task model?
