Severity: important

We have many Gmail users who are getting unsubscribed because Gmail
generates bounces on mail with illegal attachements (.exe, or archive
containing executables, and similar):
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6590?p=BlockedMessage

    SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:
    host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com [2a00:1450:400c:c04::1b]:

Unfortunately, the BTS is very laxist and will happily forwards such kind of 
spam.
So we should probably not count such bounces in the auto-unsubscription code.

On busy packages with enough legit mails, this is not a problem, but on
packages who are getting only spam (like "less" recently), this is a real
concern.
