Interesting. I don’t see any revoked email notifications. However in the logs and the email inbox I see many bounced emails. So the question is two fold:

1. How do I know if discourse if properly parsing a bounced email response? I ask because the _Bounced_ emails admin panel NO bounced emails but clearly there are bounced emails in the _Received_ email section of the panel.
2. When does discourse decided that bounced emails are nolonger valid emails it should stop emailing them?
