i do want to try to get users back on the forum, but i don't want to aggravate anyone or invade their privacy without them being able to ever stop it.

i think that's a great idea...i'll be you could pretty easily change the templates yourself to do that by looking at the phrases in the emails for susbcribed threads, which has an option to disable further site email if i'm not mistaken. that will also keep you more sypatico with established practices if a spam question comes up.

i also have the mod installed to manage bouncing email addys-lots of bounced emails does hurt your "email rep", so weeding them out as i go is part of my overall site email management plan...
