Forgive the (possibly ignorant) question, but why won't VERPs allow
you to be 100% successful? There are exactly two things that MTA's
cannot mess with, and still work: the envelope sender, and the
envelope recipient. Any other header munging is possible, and probably
happens at least sometimes.

With VERP, if you receive a bounce, then it will be addressed in such
a way as to completely specify what bounced. Period. Handling that
automatically is certainly no trick.

Of course, at the moment I believe that implies you must use both
qmail and ezmlm.
