Would you recommend a 'bounce back to sender'?

You should consider using a "bounce back to sender" feature. This feature notifies you when an email cannot be delivered. You can see the reason for the bounce and take action. It helps you clean your list by identifying invalid email addresses. You can remove these addresses to avoid further bounces. You must be careful with bounce back emails. Sometimes, they can be too frequent or unnecessary. You may want to filter them to focus on significant issues. Overall, a bounce back to sender feature helps you improve email deliverability and maintain a clean email list.

It's basically just a way to say, Not for me, without making things messy or awkward. Like, if you get an email, package, or message you weren't expecting, just sending it back keeps things simple. It saves time too because you don't have to deal with it. That said, you gotta be careful not to come off rude, especially with people you know. But overall, if you want a quick, clean way to return something or decline, it's definitely worth doing

No. The sender address is almost always forged, and the message is almost always relayed through a botnet or a hijacked relay server. Bouncing it back just creates more wasted bandwidth and more victims. It does not bother the sender.

And really, I should have skipped the word "almost". The best thing to do with spam is just let it go silently into a quarantine, giving no feedback at all that could possibly get back to the senders and help them to improve their attacks.
