Do you know of any that specifically work around Google's overzealous filters?
If not, I doubt it would help--unsubscribing dead accounts is a reasonable thing
for ML software to do, and checking whether or not messages to the account
bounce is an easy way to do it . . .

The possible solutions that occur to me are
three:
1. Whack GMail over the collective head with a blunt instrument until it behaves
itself (good luck on that)
2. Have the list mailer check for key phrases in bounce messages and ignore
them if they're found
3. Increase the list mailer's bounce tolerance to 5-10 messages, and have
affected users use a filter to auto-trash the messages unread.
I'm pretty sure I've been unsubscribed without noticing (because I do auto-trash
the "threat messages") at least once--that would have been around April 1 of
last
year.
4. Use a different mail list backend.
