Agreed. I have clients who send tens of millions of emails a day and don’t get 
50K delayed bounces. Most well configured systems don’t send delayed bounces, 
they reject inline. I’m not even sure how they’re getting the bounces from 
Outlook, as most are handled inline.

Yeah, the customer is a problem and needs to go away.

Or just tell them that their contract doesn’t allow for this type of mail 
handling. But, really, this isn’t a customer worth keeping. This is not 
accidental.
