Today most email systems correctly send bounces to the Return-path address
(aka SMTP MAIL FROM or Envelope From, different from the RFC 822 From).
When this is done right, any list server wlll get them to the right place.
Bounces should never be sent to the RFC 822 From or the Reply-to addresses.
Errors-to is non-standard and is ignored by most mail systems.
LISTSERV has filters that will intercept most bounces that are erroneously
sent to the list and reroute them to the list owner.
