Subject: Question on using the "bounce" script

I'm new to majordomo and I'm running V1.94.5 on hp-ux.  I've been able to
work through all the issues save one :-).  How does one go about setting up
to use the "bounce" script?

I've setup the "bounces" mailing list.  I've added the bounces mail list
aliases to the /etc/mail/aliases file.  I had to edit the bounce-remind
script to locate the majordomo.cf file but it appears to run OK and I've
added it to cron.  I created the .majordomo files in the home directories
for majordomo and moderator and my own account.

I can run the "bounce" script manually and it does indeed work; I just enter
the command "./bounce <list> <e-mail addr>".

But... how do bounced messages (vs BOUNCE messages) :-) get "fed" to the
"bounce" script?

I guess I need clarification of the following in the manual:

5. Help list owners set up their accounts with the "bounce" script.
   Remember that the owners' ".majordomo" files need an entry for the
   "bounces" list as well as the other lists.

Many thanks for such an excellent tool and the massive support via the www!
:-)
