detecting hard bounce

[kadnan]

I am using a php script which is successfully detecting soft bounces emails from EXIM(v 4.x) servers via pipe but not getting hard bounce. The script is not being executed even soft bounce is taking place.

Now I found out that hard bounce returns 5xx return codes but I don't know how to fetch that via php? is there some issue with pipe that it's not executing on hard bounce or there is some issue with EXIM? I have doubt that whether script would have any issue because i am just printing a message on top of php file and file is still not being executed.

I know [procmail.org ] has been suggested for something like this. I personally haven't used it myself, but you still might want to look into it.
