I'm putting together a mass mailing application for sending out newsletters
from a site admin area (no spam).

I'm wondering how I can automate the removal of bounced addresses in this
application. The ideal situation would be that returning mail triggers a
script that removes the address of said message's recipient from the list.

I'm thinking about a script that checks the pop3 server of the reply-to
address and parses the inbox to look for returned mail and removes those
addresses from my database. This script could be run periodically as a cron
job or everytime before sending out the next mailing.

Any other suggestions, ideas?
