Here's our count of bounces without discernable addresses so far for
the year:
Month count
---------------
2006-01 10
2006-02 32
2006-03 36
2006-04 32
2006-05 16
2006-06 12
2006-07 6
I'd like to see the data through, say, September before drawing any
firm conclusions, but we definitely have *not* seen any sharp increase
in the number of bounces without discernable addresses.
As an aside, we average about 3,259 bounces per month across all
lists, so having only (e.g.) 12 unrecognized bounces is actually a
very impressive number (about 0.37%).
