After catching alot of return to senders, I now require that users have a valid email address. Now, you have to activate your accounts. Sorry it had to end up like this, I don't like it either. :(

For those that are worried about emails going public check out SneakEmail. A very cool service.

You can hide your email address from public view anyway. I think it is helpful, it notifies you of updates to your posts, when new PMs arrive, and other stuff.

What do you mean by messages? Replies, or the emails that are bouncing?

No, you can't have the actual messages mailed to you, but you can be notified of replies.
