bounced emails

[dethfire]

I have some 100,000 members on my forum and I recently sent out a newsletter. I don't often. On registration I have email confirmation. What I found out was shocking to me. Out of the 100,000 emails I sent out. 70,000 bounced!!!!! Holy cow! Is this common for everyone else? How do I make sure these emails stay good? Should I make a hack that makes people reconfirm their email every year?

Unfortunately I don't think that is uncommon, particularly if you have been running your forums for a few years.

I get a lot of bounced email too since a lot of people don't keep their info up to date. So I have an email reminder mod to make sure and remind people to come back after 30 days or so.
