Hi all, Our mail server is configured to use special envelope sender addresses for some outgoing mail so that bounces can be processed automatically.
The "bounce processor" is a self-made script. Are there any hints what to look for in a bounced mail to be sure, that it really is a bounce caused by "undeliverable mail" (and not only a vacation message), and how to clearly detect the email address that bounced? My goal is to collect invalid email addresses, but not email addresses that only send a vacation message or other auto-reply-stuff. I guess I have to look which formats of bounce messages I receive and make my bounce processor detect the various formats and extract the relevant information from it. Maybe there is a more general approach? Thanks and regards -stefan-
