I've deliberately not quoted the original message, but Brad is 100% on the money in his posts. I see a bunch of bounces that one of my highly-customized mailman lists get. At one point, I tried keeping up with just the parsing of the bounce messages, but soon gave up. There are too many strange ones, and ones that give you no clue for the reason of the bounce... some give you no clue WHO bounced! I've even seen some that come back from different domains.
Like Brad said, the KISS rule really is a good idea.

But, the idea is NOT to try to parse bounce *messages*, it's to parse bounce *codes*.
