We can't use VERP as neither got through -bounces messages were being passed to /var/mail/sendmail and stacking up there. They indicated that there was no such address. I never did see the exact fault but it was likely something with the aliases as after checking, tidying, etc, all of a sudden we were up and running with bounce processing operational. All other addresses could be seen to be going, particularly noticeable being the -request address, but -bounces was not processed.
