I'm not sure they can be expressed in any way at all... All I can figure 
out so far is that the expiry of a message implies it's possibly not 
quite as important, urgent or valid to the 
sender/recipient/some-other-person as it would have been before it expired.

I'm not sure that's a tight enough definition :)
