MSMQ Private queue automatically remove unread message beyond 24 hours

Question

Hello,

I use MSMQ through WCF to store messages in private queue. (private queue hosted by Windows Server 2003). Messages are stored only for 24 hours and automatically removed from queue, somebody know why ?

Thank's for your help

Maybe the messages have an expiry set? See Message.TimeToBeReceived property.
