i can only guess and say that all pages in the pagemap are part of the
conversation and once the conversation is over/discarded the pagemap
is removed so pages in that pagemap/conversation are no longer
accessible. if the user tries to click back to a page and click any
link on it they will get the page expired exception.

dont think we have a replacement for this, actually. what we would
need is ipagemanager#removePage(int id). that will only handle
removing a single page though. if you have more pages that are part of
a conversation you will have to track them all so the last page of the
conversation knows all other pages that paricipated. this should be
easy since somehow you must already be propagating the conversation
somehow. then when conversation is over the code can access the list,
from pages metadata?, and remove all pages. feel free to add an rfe
for the remove() method.

martin has already answered that in another email...
