nnmail-expiry-wait-function is called with a newsgroup name sans method.
(setq nnmail-expiry-wait-function (lambda (group)
(cond
((string= "nnml:lists.zsh" group)
30)
Replace the comparison with:
((string= "lists.zsh" group)
and you'll be O.K. The example in the manual shows something like
this without commentary, perhaps it should say something explicit.
In order for expiration to occur, you must manually set the expired
mark with the ``E'' command in the *Summary* buffer.

Gnus becomes Gnus 5.2 ...
