When e-mail to an alumnus bounces, I determine (by hand) whether it’s a temporary problem (such as their mail spool being full) or whether their account doesn’t exist anymore. If the latter is the case, their record is flagged as bouncing. If someone asks to be removed from the database, I just nuke their record altogether.
