Actually, it is if I understand correctly. See the script at
<http://www.msapiro.net/scripts/set_nomail.py> (mirrored at
<http://fog.ccsf.cc.ca.us/~msapiro/scripts/set_nomail.py>).

If you set a member to "no mail by bounce" with this script, they will
then be send the normal bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings messages at
bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings_interval and eventually be removed.

However, if you do as Stephen suggests and file a bug with the
unrecognized bounce attached or just send it to me, I'll try to
recognize it in the next release.
