There is no control over how the other server bounces mail.  As I've said before, 
trying to track bounces programattically is far from an exact science.  The other 
server *should* bounce to the address listed in the return-path but the other server 
can do whatever the developers decided is the best way to handle bounces (using the 
FROM is about the worst IMHO).

Howie
