I'm afraid that doesn't help at all.
In the many months I was under attack earlier this year there was only
ever one single lone (successful) attempt by any other postmaster to
contact me and ask me if there was a problem; and despite my sending of
notification of bogus bounces to many hundreds of postmasters the best I
ever got back was sympathy for the borked nature of their software and
the inability of their vendor to make even the most basic recipient
verification available.
The people who are lame enough to use such broken software in the first
place are either too ignorant to figure out what's wrong or else too
lazy to do anything about it.
