Is there any reason not to make (for v1.2)

1. deliver -e behavior the defaut?

As long as -e still means EX_NOPERM and a new switch is picked for "send bounce ourselves". (Unless #2 happens.)

2. not even provide the option for the current default (have deliver send bounces itself)?

As a mail admin, I never want to see deliver generating its own messages to potentially forged addresses and spamming innocent people. The MTA should do this during the SMTP transaction.
