As far as I can see your mailling list system puts in the
address of the mailing list as the envelope sender, which
will then become the error return path for most decent
mail servers.  

The following lines shows the envelope sender:
>From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Fri Mar 29 17:35:42 2002
Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>


It might help to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] as the envelope
from address instead, which you may then choose to direct to the
bit bucket or to weed out dead addresses.
