Here's a neat idea that I think would 1) reduce pending queue size 2) Help us find out exactly how often poor innocent bystanders are actually spammed due to spammers forging their email addresses:

Put a tagged 'bounce' address (like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) in the envelope of outgoing emails. When TMDA processes this bounce, the email is either deleted from the pending queue (no one will be replying anyway) or somehow marked in the pending queue as failed.

Would this be possible or a good idea?

Would this be stupid and break something I haven't thought of?

Hee hee, I could then even put a line in my confirmation email:

If you hate C/R and want to delete your message from my pending queue without me seeing it, send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] :P
