And a bounce is also good for having spambots validate e-mail addresses
depending on the routing path of the bounce. If The_Bat! was the
bouncer it shows the mail bounced from The_Bat!'s receiver address,
back through your ISP's SMTP server to the originator's SMTP server
and bang, the recipient's address (yours) was valid and validated.
This is how you plan to stop spam in your inbox? NOT!
