Sounds like a good idea (I mean the bounce option)


I am not so sure about it, as most spams' headers are forged, the bounces almost never reach the spammer anyway, and many times land in the inboxes if innocent people who got their email forged in spam. At best, those bounces just waste bandwidth.

I'm not sure I understand what "bounce" actually ment.

I was thinking about something more mail-protocol-internal, such that the server passing the mail will actually think the account was not recognized by the receiving side (the relaying servers do know where they got the mail from, and are reuired by rfc821 to send back "undeliverable mail" notifications - the spam program might be listening for those). Maybe bounce is not the right term for this.
