Excellent.

I wish we could make this more intelligent by *not registering a new bounce*
when the most recent one is *not older than one day*. For example, if my mail
autoresponder becomes crazy and sends 30 "bounces" at once, I can hit the
limit just because, for another reason (maybe blocking a virus that the list
let through), I bounced one message 2 months ago.

This would make the rule behave as perfectly as one can imagine, I guess...
(This idea of "one bounce a day maximum" is inspired from Mailman's
behavior, and it works!)
