I read your original post. I see nothing there I haven't addressed.

The only explicit assumption I made is that the test address that was
disabled by bounce over 24 hours ago was disabled before you set
bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings to 0.

I suppose I did make an implicit assumption that you have command line
access to the installation when I suggested you could run
cron/disabled by hand. If this is not the case, just set
bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings_interval to 1, and this disabled by
bounce member will be unsubscribed the next time cron/disabled runs
(default, 09:00 daily, server local time).
