Maybt Gnus accepts the above format, but I've always seen

     ((uidvalidity . "1069690233")
      (total-expire . t)
      (expiry-wait . 93))

instead.  The `.' is significant: your format is equivalent to

     ((uidvalidity . "1069690233")
      (total-expire . (t))
      (expiry-wait . (93)))

which I expect doesn't make any difference w.r.t total-expire (Gnus
probably only cares about it being non-nil), but the setting of (93)
instead of 93 might very well confuse Gnus (I don't have Gnus-5.10
but at least 5.9 does not document expiry-wait as accepting a list).
