No, you don't get to wind-back the clock 15 years to the days before MIME
bounces. In-line bounces are an abominable mess, they lack a structured
machine-parseable message/delivery-status part that can be used to
reliably parse the bounce reason. And comingle bounce information with
the original message or headers.

The CRM system is broken, not the bounce format. There is no guarantee
that bounces will come only from your system. Even if you "fix" that,
you will still get standards conformant bounces from other systems.

Fix the CRM system, or look for another one.
