Recipient addresses are MUCH more vulnerable to attack than bounce
addresses, because they have to be advertised to potential
legitimate senders which means they are also advertised to spammers.

The root of the collateral spam problem is that recipient addresses
are used for error reporting, and they are easy to obtain so you can
easily mess up the error handling.
