How do I delete messages in a newsgroup in Entourage 2008?

Currently when I right-click on a message, the "Delete Message" option is
greyed out.

You can't delete any newsgroup message. They are on the server and older
ones are deleted on a schedule after xx days.

Doesn't Entourage download a local copy? I'm guessing the timeframe to
delete is news server dependent?

It's cached. Don't worry about this making your database large. See this
