Mac Mail Trash being emptied too soon?

Hi, can you see from this screenshot that my trash emails are being automatically deleted after only a few days. And yet I have auto delete set to 1 month? It's really annoying as sometimes I want to retrieve an email I've recently deleted from my inbox.

Can you help?

Mail Version 12.4

OS Version 10.14.6

I may have solved this myself. I checked my phone and discovered trash was set to be deleted after one week. So I changed to one month.
