That's too funny. You're suggesting to the original poster, who appears
to be a spammer to use abusive means to deal with bounces.
I'd almost be laughing if it wasn't so sad.
"recipient verify callout" is a bad thing and it's a shame it was ever
implemented in exim way back. In fact it caused quite some dislike for
exim. It needs to be burried and forgotten.
