I have experienced twice that the autoexpirer stopped working without
explanation.
Once was on my own system running 0.16 and the second was my parents system
running 0.17. Since upgrade to 0.18.1 and 0.19 I have not seen that problem
anymore.

I too searched the backend log for anything regarding autoexpiring but did
not find anything. Are you running 0.18 or 0.18.1 ?
