Alex, I guess i don't follow what you are saying. I have 500+ returned emails each with a different TO:email address. There is only one returned copy of each of them. I don't understand the "first time" and the "bounces". So far I haven't been able to get any of the TO:email address into my database. (Of course I haven't tried all 500+ yet, but will and see if any show up).
Further explaination would be appreciated.
