Congratulations.
Its no small feat to get something deployed and used on Wikimedia, especially when its integrated directly with the site. Many gsoc projects have failed in this regard, you should be proud of what you have accomplished.

Hello,
Happy to inform that we could successfully complete the global deployment[1] of Extension:BounceHandler and the Wikipiedia's are handling bounce emails effectively. The current threshold for the number of allowed bounces is 5, and we could test the unsubscribe action live on en.wikipedia.org with help of sysops ( I couldnt send more than 2 emails, thanks to the Anti-spam checks ).
As of now, 'bounce_records' have 37338 entries, mainly from group0 and group1 wikis ( in ~ 20 days ). We expect an exponential increase in the same, as the en-wiki has got amazing bounce rates.
This would mean the finish ( deployment ) of my GSoC 2014 project[2] with Jeff Green and Legoktm. Thanks to everyone who helped in between, it was real fun!
