I think * Auto-Delete= defaults to on, but I forget the exact syntax.  You
might want to explicitly set it to be off, though from what you say above
it looks like that's probably not the only problem.

Some sites might be down intermittantly so that sometimes they generate
bounces and other times they don't.  This explanation sounds lame even to
me, though.

Guess I'm out of ideas for now.
