   I could look for the string <MAILER-DAEMON@MIT.EDU> as the from field and
   not insert this into the database.

   Question:  If we do not insert this into the database, do we just throw the
	       message away?  Do we reroute it to helpsuer?

I don't think that you should throw it away. Keep it; bounce it to a
human for manual processing.
