Hello Paul,

    Paul either you don't anything or I. These bounces has nothing to
do with current subscription of that subject - thanks god, it was
terminated ASAP. But his imbecilic system has 30 days of delivery
timeout, i.e. it sucked all our messages during the month, and all the
next month (yep, just 25 days left ;-\) will spew them in our face.

    Yes, mailman should have filtered these bounces. Not doing so is a
bug. Please find time to submit it (with all required info, e.g. copy
of bounce with headers) to Mailman project. That won't help us right
now. I wrote to {postmaster,root}@stevej.demon.co.uk - no response.
Next step to write to {postmaster,root}@demon.co.uk . Next step to
write to the same, but in 10,000 copies. I don't have time or
resources to undertake it currently. If you can, please do - you're
list admin just as well as me and Earnie (and yes, that's sucking job
;-) )
