1. Here's is a fairly busy IMGate using reject_unverified_recipient (I
would prefer he use to_relay_recipients for these volumes), and only 4 of
the bounces are by his Imail:

2. and his harvested _dict file plays a typically big role in total rejects:
3323 RBL bulk.rhs.mailpolice.com
3327 DNS nxdomain for MTA PTR hostname (forged @sender.domain)
4938 ACL SAV: unverifiable sender address
9833 ACL mta_clients_bw
14254 SMTP Exceeded Hard Error Limit after DATA
14617 RBL cbl.abuseat.org
16512 ACL RAV: undeliverable recipient address <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
20951 SMTP Exceeded Hard Error Limit after RCPT
21060 ACL mta_clients_dict <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
26197 ACL helo hostname contains an IP
============================
152237 TOTAL
Usually, for a day, the RAV rejects will be bigger than the _dict rejects.
