Addresses are slightly edited, but `archve' is a misspelled command
(meant to get the list archive). couriermlm prints "Invalid address."
and returns a temporary error.

Shouldn't it bounce?

It should.

Now figure out what you did to Courier's configuration that made it accept mail to nonexistent recipients.

Hm... you mean that a regular configuration would have bounced that,
don't you?

I have a .courier-default in aliasdir (I filter it with rcptfilter),
but "mylist" exists as a user, so it should never reach that point.

No, it would.

  DEFAULT DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS
      The  /etc/courier/aliasdir  directory  is  searched as the last resort,
      when all attempts to figure out how to deliver mail to a local  address
      have failed.

Since no given delivery instructions could be found for the given recipient address, the aliasdir directory gets searched.

The dot-courier man page even explicitly tells you this:

      All the usual aspects of .courier deliveries  apply.  If  there  is  no
      account that corresponds to the address <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Courier
      looks      for      /etc/courier/aliasdir/.courier-user-foo,       then
      /etc/courier/aliasdir/.courier-user-default,         and        finally
      /etc/courier/aliasdir/.courier-default.
