That's odd, because hundreads/thousends of people are using it.
There is unwritten rule that
YOU SHOULD NOT BOUNCE BACK AUTOMATICALLY[1][2]
One day, you may bounce to a mailing list and you will be
hung from your neck by the members.
There are lot of alternative resources to fight against spam, check
this and Era's pages at http://www.iki.fi/~era/procmail/

[1] Do not use any "tool" that responds automatically. Instead
It should delived to "suspectible spambox" from where you manaully
select mails that are true spam. But there are exeptions,
e.g. the blacklists bouncer (RBL).
[2] You can bounce spam, if you write the rule explicitedly yourself
to the procmail. These are the "rapid spammers", that harrash you
every day, so you can write explicit Received: header catch for them.
