Hi Chris,

Anyway, after looking through the code I have some questions about whether I've interpreted the actions correctly in a couple of areas.

Firstly, the Type Rate. Am I right in thinking that a user could get 50 4xx bounces followed by one 5xx and find the whole 51 multiplied by 1?
You're right. The alternative would be to reset the bounce information (related to a subscriber) if we receive a bounce with a type different than the previous one.
Secondly, regularity rate and digest readers. If a subscriber receives (or rather doesn't) a daily digest on a list with, say, 30 posts per day and ALL his digests bounce, will his regularity rate appear to be 0.033 despite the fact that everything bounces? In which case, it will be a long while before digest bouncers get removed!
Yes it will take longer to get him removed but :

1. we have fewer bouncing data for this person
2. we have "wasted" less ressources for this bouncing user

Do you have a proposal to improve any of these aspectes of the bounce management system ?
Thanks
