 You can use a system Sieve filter to discard bounces that match
certain criteria, and you can use customized bounce messages to do
things like add special information or tracking headers. For example,
locally we drop all bounces of things that we scored as spam. Our spam
filtering system marks the original Subject:, so we copy the Subject:
into the bounce as 'X-Original-Subject' and then have a router that runs
bounce messages past a system Sieve filter that inspects them:

eat_spam_bounces:
        driver = redirect
        # only discard bounces going externally
        domains = ! +local_domains
        file = /magic/filter/file
        allow_filter
        allow_freeze
        user = Debian-exim
        no_verify
        no_expn
        condition = ${if and {{!eq{$interface_port}{25}} \
                {!def:return_path} {def:h_x-original-subject:} }}

The Sieve filter itself is basically:
        # Exim filter
        #
        if $h_x-original-subject: BEGINS "[PMX:SPAM] "
        then
                seen finish
        fi

(with logging and some additional conditions and etc.)

 What I don't know is how you'd get necessary information from the
text of the SMTP error into the bounce message in a way that a Sieve
filter could use here. But I haven't looked into this, since we haven't
needed it.
