All I ask is that the next time you have to mess with the software, please consider changing it.  A global replace works for most areas.  The exceptions:

CHANGELOG (obviously).

mimedefang.pl.in - Globally, except for the addition of it as an alias to "action_reject()".

mimedefang-filter.5.in - Globally, except for the addition of a note of it as an alias (for backward compatibility).

mimedefang-protocol.7.in:198 - Delete the word Bounce, and capitalize reject (and bring it outside the parentheses).

Everywhere else, it's simply a global change ("bounce => "reject" , and capitalized equivalents):
README
README.SECURITY
mimedefang.c
contrib/graphdefang-0.9/event/sendmail/sympa_outgoing
examples/suggested-minimum-filter-for-windows-clients
tests/parts/action_bounce.bin
tests/test-filter
tests/test-msg-2

It should take about 10 minutes for these changes at most.
