 Alas, this part will make many a reader think "you suck", 
because we human readers can clearly identify those bounces 
as misplaced and undesireable.  We just can't come up with 
the ultimate(*) filter rule for it.

Those who _can_, employ a suitable filter rule.
Those who _can't_, bitch or unsubscribe.

It is a prediction, not an order. :-)


*) Ultimate rule: Human and computer friendly,
 i.e. no false positives and modest resource consumption.
