Dear list-readers,

Is there a script or a program that can extract the failed addresses from mail 
delivery error messages received and stored in a K-Mail-directory?

Details:

One one of my websites I offer a newsletter and file the addresses in a MySql 
database after a "Confirmed Opt-In" or "Double Opt-In". Over the years there 
are thousands of addresses and hundreds of them became invalid meanwhile. So 
every time I send the newsletter I receive many error-messages. I filter them 
to a separate directory, but then I have to copy/paste the addresses manually 
to a textfile which I finally use to update my database.

This is quite a lot of unproductive work and I'd really like to have some 
script or program that can filter out the failed addresses and write them to 
a simple textfile which I can process further.

Because the error messages are very different depending on the mail delivery 
software that responds I am not able to write such a script myself.

Thanks for any hints.

Daniel
