by now we do not accept any kind of bounce which does not include
the full headers, we take a look also at the subject to try to
distinguish bounces from vacation messages, altough i'm also tired
of receiving vacation messages sent in response to some virus faking
my email.

no, but it has problems. BTW, looks like it's only targeted at
detecting bounces generated by faked messages altough the whole
draft looks a bit confusing to me, i would be pleased if you can
outline how it works in a more plain way.
