No, I use bbdb, and not everything is there.

Sure, but it is not mandatory to use aliases, and someone typing an
email address in To: or CC: is not contrary to documentation. So I
don't think we can say "the bounce resend function should never allow

For me, bounces because I mistype are not that common. It is just that
of the bounces where I want to resend it, they are the majority.
