Help Android 2.3.5/Sense 3 text message limit doesn't work

Hi I am running Android 2.3.5 on the HTC Desire HD with HTC Sense 3.0

Steps:
Messages > Settings > General > Storage settings.

I have the check box checked next to "Delete old messages" with the limit set to 200, but it doesn't keep the messages at a maximum of 200, it goes way over.

Does anyone else have this problem or know a solution to get it working?

EDIT: My friend has just tried this on the same phone running 2.3.3 with sense 2.1 and it works fine... looks like something has gone awry between 2.3.3 and 2.3.5 ...
