Yeah, I'm screwed either way.  Replying verifies me as deliverable, and
the lack of a bounce does the same thing.  Although the lack of a bounce
is less certain -- the sender won't know if the mail got silently
filtered and dropped at the other end.

I guess this is truly a case of "just delete it."  That's what I'll do.
