The VBounce rules can identify the lions share of these. Disabled by default, unless properly configured. http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.2.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Plugin_VBounce.html Also, please be sure to read the comments in 20_vbounce.cf, the rules file itself, how these bounces are intended to be handled -- moved to a dedicated folder. It is generally not a good idea to simply raise the scores.
