It's a sledgehammer approach, but I decided the time spent scanning the 
Bounce mailbox for legitimate bounces outweighed the time lost picking 
the bounces out of my inbox.

If your experience is anything like mine, you'll go through intense 
spam-bounce periods separated by lengthy lulls. I have some hope it will 
burn out on its own... ask me in a year if I was right :-).
