You could set the bounce back address to an address used only for the purpose of collecting the bounced emails. Then cfpop the address, use a regex to pull out the emails and remove them from the database.
I'd personally add a 'numberOfBounces' numeric column to your database and instead of deleting the record when the address bounces, increment the 'numberOfBounces' for that address. Once it hits a specific bounce count, then delete it. Bounces don't always mean the address is bad, the next one could go through. I see it occasionally. The chances of 2 email addresses being found in the body of the bounced email is pretty high as well. The address it was sent from and the address it was sent to. Just make sure that the address you send FROM doesn't need to be subscribed to your mailing list. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.
