The next good MQGET will cause the messages to be deleted from the queue. The
depth with show them, but they are not available.

I have an application that puts to a reply queue and the messages expire
after 2mins. After this time I can no longer browse the message but I can
see the queue depth remains at 5 for example.
Can anybody point me in the right direction

Messages remain on the queue when expired until a GET is performed on them.
This is just how MQ works. Why do you want to remove them? To prevent
misunderstandings?

If you move forward at least to MQSeries 5.2, then a browse of the queue
will cause the expired messages to be deleted. Under 5.3 you can also
specify an EXPRYINT parameter to have expired messages periodically deleted
without the need to browse the queue
