Return-Path: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
First off, my apologies for the confusion. This is my first time
posting to a mailing list; I didn't really know how to handle the
return path thing, so I had to start over. Is this better? The return
path goes at the top of the message body, right? Or is it the subject
line? The verbiage on the ML FAQ is a little ambiguous.

TBH I had to go have a look to see what you were talking about; in ~20+ years
participating in various lists like this I've never met one that had such a
strange public-facing requirement for something that's part of the internals of
normal mail system operation. "Return-Path" is a generated header most
commonly added to a message on final delivery, not something you add in the
body or as an outgoing header.
The sentence "Please check that your outgoing messages start with a line like
the following: Return-Path: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> where
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> is the mail account which you used
to subscribe to the mailing-list." should really be removed outright, along
with the last sentence "You will be able to post to the mailing-lists by
putting any of those addresses in Return-Path.".
"Subscribers-only" posting is common on "interactive" mailing lists like this
one - technically inclined or not. So long as you're using a regular mail
program to send to the list, and you have your user profile set to the address
you subscribed with, you should be fine.
I agree that it’s unnecessary. I’ve removed the verbiage.
