Arnt points out that I should have said "it's only used for auto- responses". (RFC 3834 of course) I tend to use "bounce" as a shorthand for "message with a null return path", which is not very accurate since not all bounces have null return paths (despite what 2821 says) and not all messages with null return paths are bounces (though they SHOULD all be auto-replies).
