I am currently using a bounce-back system where 2 headers are placed in an email with codes that indicate where bounces should go:
 
smtpfrom: Test <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
The 2 numbers are keys to a user table and list table.
 
Here's the problem. If say 12 people subscribe from AOL, AOL seems to receive 1 email for all 12 of those people, and expands it themselves. If the people receive these emails the numbered header comes through with flying colors. If any of these addresses are bad and AOL generates a bounce-back, it pulls one of the emails headers and sends the bounce back info to it. If more than one are bad, they all go to the same arbitrary email address. Then this one arbitrary email address gets put on hold by my system, even though their email address might be good.
 
Anyone else using a similar system?
Anyone else have a fix?
A better system?
 
Thanks
