Description

Following up on an email conversation initated by IT, we should build a tool that prevents emails from being sent by WordPress to emails known to be defunct. This can probably hook into one of the generic wp_mail() filters and bail if the "to" address matches something on the hardcoded blacklist.

This should not be seen as a permanent fix for bounce handling, but it should be easy enough to handle if IT sends us an occasional list of GC addresses known to be disabled in their system.
