Description

Today I noticed my desktop & mobile clients both show chat messages with another user
that should have disappeared after 30 days per the message deletion option but I still see 2 messages from 2020-01-31. The other user's client does not show these same messages.

my log id: 7595a2ffc73b601e3c86341c

Research direction

Start by investigating the message deletion option and the discrepancy between the reporter's desktop/mobile clients and the other user's client, using log ID 7595a2ffc73b601e3c86341c. Reproduce the case with the two messages from 2020-01-31 and verify that messages past the 30-day limit disappear consistently from all clients.
