It depends on the list and settings. The defaults are
bounce_score_threshold = 5 and bounce_info_stale_after = 7. This means a
user's delivery won't be disabled by bounce until the list has received
bounces on 5 separate days with no more than 7 days between bounces.
With these settings, a list which receives posts on average less than
one day a week, will never see anyone's delivery disabled by bounce or
removed by bounce processing.

For low volume lists, a lower threshold and a longer
bounce_info_stale_after are often more appropriate.
