How often should I flush all the data cache (posts and headers) for
newsgroups for the OE newsreader?
1GB dual channel RAM, free reign swapfile, GBs of freespace. News group
downloads is set at 1000 max per group. Only the headers are auto
downloaded.

That's up to you.
OE deletes messages when they expire off the server.
I have a rule which I apply manually when a newsgroup starts to slow down:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the message was sent more than 25 days ago
Delete it
