I fixed the exceptions and the behavior is now as follows (from http://mapproxy.org/docs/nightly/configuration.html#mbtiles):

The MBTiles format does not include any timestamps for each tile and the seeding function is limited therefore. If you include any refresh_before time in a seed task, all tiles will be recreated regardless of the value. The cleanup process does not support any remove_before times for MBTiles and it always removes all tiles. Use the --summary option of the mapproxy-seed tool.

Please let me know if that works.

Regards,
Oliver
