Volume Use Duration might be the thing you miss... retention is only 
applied after the volume is last written, so you need to make sure it's 
written only for one day. Then the retention period starts, and the 
volume can be purged before the week is over.

So, try "Volume Use Duration=23hours" and "Volume Retention=5days" and 
don't forget to update your existing volumes to these values!
