How do role addresses trigger inconsistent bounce behavior?

Role addresses behave unpredictably compared to personal addresses:

What role addresses are:

Generic addresses: info@, sales@, support@, admin@. Not tied to specific individuals. Often shared or forwarded.

Inconsistent behaviors:

Different filtering: May have stricter spam rules. Forwarding chains: Message may bounce from intermediate step. Quota issues: Shared mailboxes fill faster. Acceptance varies: Some servers reject role addresses entirely.

Bounce pattern issues:

May accept one day, reject the next. Different recipients check at different rates. Auto-responders more common. Configuration changes more frequent.

Handling recommendations:

Track role addresses separately. Apply longer soft bounce thresholds. Expect higher variability. Consider segmenting from personal addresses.

Role addresses are shared docks with rotating crews. What worked yesterday may not work today.
