If it can be triggered with MTA arguments, then you can do VERP with current versions of Sympa using the 'sendmail_args' parameter :

Does this fit your needs ?

(VERP seems to be becoming an obsession of mine....)

I was just reading this page: http://www.postfix.org/VERP_README.html and
thinking: Wow, it looks to me like, at least with Postfix, we could do VERP
on all Sympa list messages without Sympa actually doing any extra work or
adding much extra load to the system. Am I correct that, with maybe a very
minor change to how Sympa processes bounces and the command that it uses to
call the MTA, I could be using Postfix-enabled VERP on all my lists? I want
to try it....

And do the other MTA's (or at least sendmail and exim) have the same
capability? If not, if the change is as easy as I think, it might still be
worth integrating into Sympa and activating it only if the chosen MTA is
Postfix. This would be *really great* to have.
