Depends on how the SMTP server has been configured - do you have a POP account where the messages that don't arrive are being bounced back to? Using PHP or Perl you can search the folder on the mail server where those messages are stored (if you have access to it) and, searching the text, deciding which is a bounced back message, an unsubscribe request etc.. and then updating your list accordingly
you can surely find some info here: http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Mailing_List_Managers/ there are also cheap programs out there to manage mailing lists easily
