  I tried to deliver a bounce message to this address, but the bounce
 bounced!

The line above shows you the email address it was trying to deliver to.
You'll notice that it is not a valid email address because the
domain name is not valid. 

yahoogroups.com=20 is not a valid domain.

  Sorry, I couldn't find any host named yahoogroups.com=20. (#5.1.2)
