    I'm guessing you probably want 'ctime' there.

    If you use mtime, then it will be deleted "ndays" after
the last modification date on the file -- NOT the time the file
was moved into the recycle bin.

    If you use ctime - that appears to update when the file
is moved into a different directory (the recycle bin) -- allowing
things to expire some number of days after it is "recycled".
