If you're using the basic mail() function in PHP, you're not going to get
any data back regarding deliveries. Some of the available SMTP classes may
incorporate that, though.
You'll more than likely (since you want to automate this, I imagine) have to
write a PHP script that logs into a mailbox and parses the messages looking
for bounces, failed delivery, etc.
