Yes, why not? Considerate users who are leaving on vacation set *themselves*
to NOMAIL prior to leaving! They can then resume the flow of mail when they
return by use of a simple command. For that matter, if they are nuked, they
need only re-subscribe - again, a simple one-line email message. A lot less
work for the subscriber, frankly, than it is for the list owner to wade
through the error messages they are generating.

I don't understand the point. The mailbox will still be full. Now they will
bounce one message a day rather than multiples - but bounce they will.
