Thanks David for the reply.

For example, here is a user that has a bounce count of 0:

Status : Bad destination mailbox address (5.1.1)
Bounce count : 222
Period : from 03 Mar 2008 to 06 Mar 2008

Because the status is bad destination mailbox address, should not the bounce
score jump to 100 and cause the recipient to be immediately removed?

I added an address in a test list where the domain did not exist. Yet the
bounce score is still zero after a few days?

By the way, where is the bounce count stored? I could not find it in the
mysql database?

Thanks again for your help!

Paul

Yes, that's due to the bounce score computing method.
You will have all the details here :
https://www.sympa.org/manual/bounces#bounce_management

Roughly, the bounce score stays to zero untils the bouncer reaches (and
keeps) a reasonnable number of bounces when compared to the list's
traffic and your own settings.
This "zero" values confuses a lot of people, and we are considering to
change it to a message like "bounces activity not relevant yet".
