Bounce processing has not been working - but I do have a list of addresses that have been bounced. What I want to do is bulk update all those matching contacts and put their emails on hold.
I cant see a way of doing that. Is there?

If you're brave, you could upload your sheet as it's own table and do an sql "Update" on the civicrm_email table joining your new table via the email addresses.
You might be able to just import your sheet as a regular contact import with your strict matching rule, if your email addresses are unique (I'm not sure whether this would work, but it might be the easiest if it does - the part I'm not sure about is whether the mapping you get would expose the is-on-hold field and on-hold-date field).
