Lots of bounced emails recently? Don't despair

We're noticing that several of our clients are seeing higher bounce rates recently. In one recent mailing, we had 10% more bounces than we normally see. Many of them were marked "mailbox full."

Then we realized that an awful lot of Americans have had lives interrupted by recent hurricanes. Especially in Florida, a hotbed of many donor bases, millions have had no electricity all week.

We're curious about whether you have experienced the same thing, and what you're doing about it. We think we'll just ignore bounces for the next month or so, and then see what the rate is.
