Hi Blaine, GAE cannot do this, but you can use external mailers (sendgrid, mailgun, etc) which detect bounced mails, and then you can either collect the list of bounces, or you can provide web hooks so the external service calls your application, letting you know about the bounces.
It's really simple to integrate, and while it costs a little extra, you'll get really good service right now, and some features (like not resending to already bounced addresses) that you might never get on GAE.
