Only the first permanent failed delivery in a calendar day is counted.
Both temporary (status 4xx) failures and additional permanent (5xx)
failures are logged and update the "most recent bounce" timestamp, but
do not increment the bounce count.  If the threshold is set to "3"
(days) it will be at least 72 hours before a "clean" subscription is
disabled.

The process is implemented in model/bounce.py:BounceProcessor.process_event.
(The header comment for that section of code is sloppy, read the code.)

The disable delivery threshold and the interval after which bounce
info is considered stale is configured per-list in Postorius.
