No, not at all - it's not the mailing list software generating the error, is
the mail server for the address that's bouncing.
It's supposed to bounce errors back to the mailing list server, since the
mailing list software correctly includes headers telling it to do that (so
that the list subscribers should never see bounces, or you'd normally get
loads...) but the receiving mail software is completely ignoring it and
replying to the original sender.
The only thing the list server can do is remove the offending address from
the list.
This happened on the Voyager list a little while back, I think, with the
same address...
