I'm 99.9% certain that this is a side-effect of strict-mode. In strict
mode, a check is done to see whether the key belongs to the user and is
valid. If the key expired, than the key is no longer valid for the user
and therefore the message is not decrypted for the user. I'll need to
check this to be 100% certain.

Good question whether this is expected behaviour or not. I'm not sure
whether it is easy to add an "allow expired" cert just for strict mode.
Let me think about this. Currently the only work around is I think to
add it to the CTL with expired allowed (or disable strict mode)

Kind regards,
