And to extend the discussion a little further, I also get a bounce from the 
administrative list that looks like this:

BOUNCE mylist@mydomain.com: global taboo header: /^subject:\s*Returned 
mail\b/i

So it would be nice if the administrative list could be configured to 
ignore the global taboo header list, but I don't see how to do that either.

Thanks again,
Howard
