Zack, If I go to my Bin, I get the message "Messages that have been in the bin for more than 30 days will be automatically deleted". I have some 25 messages in the bin that are more than 30 days old and the oldest of these is dated December 3, 2013. I am reading them in Gmail so synchronization should not be a problem.
