Here is my scenario: I have 2 email accounts: [admin@domain.com](mailto:admin@domain.com) and [bounce@domain.com](mailto:bounce@domain.com). I want to send email to all my users with [admin@domain.com](mailto:admin@domain.com) but then “reply to” [bounce@domain.com](mailto:bounce@domain.com) (until here, my PHP script can handle it). When, the email can’t be sent, it’s sent to [bounce@domain.com](mailto:bounce@domain.com), the error message could be 553 (non existent email …) etc. My question is: How do I direct all those bounce emails (couldn’t-sent emails) to [bounce@domain.com](mailto:bounce@domain.com) through a handling script to check for the bounce error codes? What programming language should I be using for the “handling script”? What would the “handling script” look like? Can you give a sample? in other words: What are the procedures I should follow to handle the bounce email ?
