What is useful can be abused.
I run email newsletters for donkey's years. I have subscribers who
leave institution A and set a forward to their account at institution
B. They ought to signoff from the A account and sign on with the B
account. But they are lazy.
Later, one leaves institution B and the email to B bounces. Forward
at A still works. Sod's law has institution B runs some Microsoft
crap. I get a delivery failure without any indication of the
forwarder's address. I can't figure out who the original subscriber
is. Unless, I remove a random subscriber every mail and wait until
one email to the list is no longer bouncing from B. Or I send off
the email very slowly and check the logs. With 6000 subscribers,
either approach seems a masochist's idea of fun.
