1c2e263bb7 warmup(ip-rehab): bias recipients to multi-subscriber business domains (cut bounce)
Day-0 batch saw ~45% bounce because 'no listmonk bounce record' is a weak
liveness signal. Now require the recipient's domain to have >=2 enabled
subscribers (a real org, not a one-off typo'd address), which materially lowers
the dead-mailbox bounce rate on the recovering IPs.

25f4a7503b warmup: IP rehab for .91-.93 so they can be reallocated
The 3 IPs (mta02-04 / .91-.93) retired after the May 30-31 over-volume blast are
NOT on any DNSBL (Spamhaus/Barracuda/SpamCop/SORBS all clean) and have clean PTRs
+ SPF/DKIM/DMARC -- the damage was provider-internal reputation, which recovers
with slow clean sending. scripts/ip_rehab.py sends a tiny ramping trickle
(10/IP/day -> cap 60) of genuine CAN-SPAM-compliant compliance check-in mail to
clean business-domain, never-bounced recipients via dedicated heavily-throttled
postfix transports rehab02/03/04 (30s/msg, bound to .91/.92/.93). Routing uses an
X-PW-Rehab-IP header + header_checks FILTER to override the transport_maps randmap
warmup rotation (verified: mail routes via rehab transports, status=sent). Daily
cron pw-ip-rehab. After ~2-3 weeks of clean sending the IPs can be reallocated.
