But even though SMTPDirect.py sends a separate message in a separate
SMTP transaction for each recipient, it still only writes one summary
log message for the entire batch.

The regexp used to extract the recipient local-part and domain from the
VERPed bounce recipient is set in Defaults.py as VERP_REGEXP and can
be overridden in mm_cfg.py if necessary to accommodate the MTA's VERP
format. So it should be possible to integrate MTA VERP with Mailman's
bounce processing with any MTA that supports VERP.
