Why would a mailer-daemon be replying to majordomo@your.domain?  Messages
going out from your list should be from listname-owner@your.domain which
implies bounces have some place to go that can be properly examined to 
determine which 550 name@aol.com ... User Unknown to remove from the list.
Mail should only go out from majordomo@your.domain when someone sends a
command message like subscribe, unsubscribe, lists, who, which, etc. to 
majordomo or listname-request which must be replied to with a Results 
message.
