We maintain a list of “bad” email addresses and a list of “remove” email addresses. For any email that comes back rejected due to problems with the email address, that email address is added to the bad list and removed from the active list. Similarly, for any removal requests, the email address is added to the remove list and removed from the active list. All new acquisitions are bounced against the bad and remove list, and any addresses on those lists are purged from the new acquisitions prior to being used. Also, whenever a mailing is sent to the list, all bad returns and any removal requests are processed prior to the list being used again.
