Thanks, it turns out my email post was correct and my code i was testing with
with different..

If I do,

     $a : MyBean(name=="one");
     not( MyBean(name=="two", this after [0s,10s] $a))

which means,  item not received between 0 and 10 seconds
then it works as expected..

If I do
        $a : MyBean(name=="one");
        not( MyBean(name=="two", this after [10s] $a))
which means, item not received between 10 and infinity seconds
then I get the false rule trigger when name==other inserted

Need to get my head around that one.
