The task does not seem to be running on it's own. I waited three days and it never ran - so I ran it manually.

That is strange. Can you post a screenshot of the plugin 's settings and taks page?

I can not reproduce this myself. I see that you have quite a lot tasks added by other third party plugins. It might be a server thing or a conflict elsewhere. You can open a ticket about this so one of the Ipb staff can look into the task settings.

It's an issue in your app:) This is just bad practice: 

foreach( new \IPS\Patterns\ActiveRecordIterator( \IPS\Db::i()->select( '*', 'core_message_topics', $where), 'IPS\core\Messenger\Conversation' ) AS $conversation )
            {

You should use a limit here and iterate only over X items on each task call. Additional to using the limit, you could and should use Task::runUntilTimeout here which will repeatedly call the method and delete any further private messages as long as the PHP process allows this.

The task lock issue has been fixed. @Loren, please download the new version of the plugin and do an update.

Thanks trying it now.  

Looks like it running as it should now.
Thanks again for addressing this issue!
