Wow, his MTA (or maybe MUA) is sending out a delivery status notification, saying that the message was delivered. I didn't think any MTAs actually did that, it can create many problems (like the current one). Joerg, you should check your mail client to see if it's sending out delivery status notifications (DSNs). What's happening is that your mail client, or your mail server, is responding back to the message saying "I got it!" mlmmj (the list software used at suckless.org, which I happen to have contributed to) treats any response to the envelope sender address as a bounced message. I'm guessing there's some sender on the list who requests delivery status notifications on their outbound messages, and this is why you only see the bounces occasionally. I'll refrain from expounding on my opinion of DSNs. Check the Internet if you're curious. Neale
