I don't know if it's a normal thing or not, but none of my servers
deliver fake rejected emails to the same place as normal ones; they
always run through their own router/transport which makes them quite
obvious.

You can also use logwrite or similar to write your own line to the log
file which will have the same message id.

Changing the logfile format is always an issue. It's like changing a
well known and stable API. It certainly shouldn't break something as
fundamental as "<=".
