A list I am subscribed to has recently experienced a problem which some of
my lists have come across as well: that is, mail to a user bounces and
gets returned to the list (ie, to the To: line, and not From: or
Sender:).

Needless to say, this usually only happens to people subscribed to the
digest version, so a 20 or 30k file gets sent to everyone (including those
subscribed to individual msgs) and, if the list maintainer isn't around,
say over the weekend, the bounced digest gets included in the next digest
and ... well, you get the idea.

Any references to just how bounced mail should be handled? I did a keyword
search at the Internic, but just don't have time to sort thru all the
responses it got me (besides, I already know how to unsub the offenders:-}).

Thanks much...
