"How many Your Membership Is Disabled warnings a disabled member should get before their address is removed from the mailing list. Set to 0 to immediately remove an address from the list once their bounce score exceeds the threshold. This value must be an integer. " 0
 
"The number of days between sending the Your Membership Is Disabled warnings. This value must be an integer. " 7
