Severity: important

We have many Gmail users who are getting unsubscribed because Gmail
generates bounces on mail with illegal attachements (.exe, or archive
containing executables, and similar):
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6590?p=BlockedMessage

    SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:
    host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com [2a00:1450:400c:c04::1b]:
    552-5.7.0 This message was blocked because its content presents a potential
    552-5.7.0 security issue. Please visit
    552-5.7.0  https://support.google.com/mail/?p=BlockedMessage to review our
    552 5.7.0 message content and attachment content guidelines. je8si13362513wjb.36 - gsmtp

Unfortunately, the BTS is very laxist and will happily forwards such kind of spam.
So we should probably not count such bounces in the auto-unsubscription code.

On busy packages with enough legit mails, this is not a problem, but on
packages who are getting only spam (like "less" recently), this is a real
concern.

This has been implemented recently. It's far from perfect but
it works well enough (at least with the exim bounces we get,
and they don't use the standardized bounce report in a separate
attachment).

Cheers,
