we dont actively try and purge messages from storage yet - only when they are paged in from store to process (e.g. if there is a consumer already). This is a known issue: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/ AMQ-1112

I have a queue that contains messages with an expiration time of 60

nothing that comes close to expiring messages that are now days old.
What could be the cause of that?

When I look in log files of consumers I see that expiration is enabled:

 ActiveMQObjectMessage { ... expiration = 1187454102768, timestamp =
1187454042768 ... }

But it does not seem to actually work.

Has anyone seen this before?
