Further to this issue of bounce counts (see above post) I’m getting more mystified and would appreciate if someone could explain the information contained in the ‘phpList Bounce processing info’ email and what shows up on the dashboard after ‘Process Bounces’ has been performed.
What turns up on the dashboard is:
6 bounces to fetch from the mailbox
Please do not interrupt this process
Closing mailbox, and purging messages
Identifying consecutive bounces
unsubscribing 5010 -> 5 bounces
unsubscribing 5044 -> 5 bounces
unsubscribing 5157 -> 5 bounces
total of 1095 subscribers processed
My queries about the above are:
It says there are 6 bounces to fetch form the mailbox. Where can I view these bounces (as there are only 3 emails/users listed (which are actually the one’s that are unsubscribed since they’ve passed 5 bounces apparently - although they haven’t because we’ve knocked down the bounce count anyway!!)
It says there are a ‘total of 1095 subscribers processed’ but I don’t know what this number relates to? We have roughly 6,000 users in our system so what does this number mean?
What turns up in the admin ‘phpList Bounce processing info’ email is:
Report:
6 bounces to process
Below are subscribers who have been marked unconfirmed. The in () is the
number of consecutive bounces.

My queries about the above are:
Obviously this says 6 bounces which I’ve already mentioned in my questions above about the info displayed on the dashboard but it then says:
The in () is the
number of consecutive bounces.
which seems to imply there is a variable missing between the brackets (). Can anybody explain what this sentence means and what I need to do to get the “theoretical” variable between the brackets to display correctly?
AND . . . . .
Has anybody got any pointers to the issue of the bounce count as explained in my previous post at the top of this forum string?
Many thanks in advance for any help you can give on this subject
