"The messgaes stay in the conventional JMS-queue."

The JMS Spec only demands that expired messages never be delivered to clients.  Expirations in JBM appear to be processed when a client requests messages from the queue/topic.  There is no background thread that automatically moves messages to the ExpiryQueue at the moment of expiration.  Are the expired messages being delivered to your message clients?  I suspect that they will be sent to the ExpiryQueue once a client attempts to pull the message.
