Can you not just add in custom headers (e.g. email address and subscriber id) and have all email responses to a specific email access (e.g. bounces@domain.com)? From here, you could use php to process any bounced emails there using the custom headers to identify the subscriber's record in your database (and giving a "strike" against that subcriber as invalid or non-response)?

Yep, that's what I use too and thought it was a lot more reliable/easier. :)
