I guess it's been 200 days since March 23. 

Remember that it only needs to meet ONE of the conditions Max(300) OR 
Delay(200) to trigger the auto-delete. I think hanging on to bounces 
for 200 days is excessive, if you want my opinion.

I recommend reviewing it for tips on setting the Auto-Delete keyword.
