Actual results:

nothing


Expected results:

the same as in older TB versions: expired articles should be removed at least when clicking on the list-ids link.

I reported this bug before, but Bugzilla cannot find it anymore.
Version: 11 → 12
BTW, it would be much more user friendly when TB would delete expired messages automatically. For now, I have to do this cleanup task every now and then. Very annoying, but now even that does not work.
This will be fixed in version 13.

There is already an option to automatically delete messages after a certain period of time has elapsed (the retention time).
