Bounces aren't being sent. The rollernet servers are the ones
generating the bounces, based on your error 500 rejection.

Sounds like in your case the best thing to do would be to enable
drop-message, or just exempt them by putting their servers in
tcp.smtp.

So is it better to recompile simscan with -drop-message option to not
have bounces sent to the sender and silently discard them?

I've heard that it's not uncommon for spammers to use a secondary (or
lowest
priority) MX server listed on DNS because the backup servers often don't
scan for spam. Sneaky little devils. ;)

It appears that what you need to able to do is to tailor the way spam is
handled according to the IP address it came from. Can maildrop possibly
do this?
