Do you send out Bounce Notifications?

Every so often we get a notice from Spam Cop ref. an offending e-mail. The offending e-mail always turns out to be a Bounce Notification. We have been operating under the assumption that sending Bounce Notifications was a requirement, but Spam Cop recommends turning them off. I can understand that but I'm not 100% convinced that is the right thing to do. Do you think sending Bounce Notices is the right thing to do or is turning them off the better thing to do? How are others handling the Bounce Notifications paradox? Do you send them out, or file them in a 'bounced/postmaster' InBox, or just log them, or just turn them off? --- Clyde Hoadley Director of Information Security Metropolitan State College of Denver Campus Box 96, P.O.
