sorry, I was being stupid. The reason that you match on
$message_body is of course that the system filter must act
on the *bounce*, not on the message that generates the
error, in order to suppress it. So this relies on the
bounce message quoting the relevant header. Of course this
is completely broken (it can't distinguish between a
quoted header and the name of the header appearing in the
quoted body) but in practice it's probably good enough. I
use this to suppress bounces to addresses which were
verified as undeliverable at time of message submission
(on a system where it is not acceptable to decline mail
from undeliverable senders).
