 Oh, we did test it for a while but this is the kind of problem that you
 do not encounter lightly in a test environment. And on top it would have
 helped if the mailman dev team would have published this major change in
 bounce processing!

They did. Close to the top of the file mailman-2.1.5/NEWS is the following section:


    - The bounce processor has been redesigned so that now when an address's
      bounce score reaches the threshold, that address will be sent a probe
      message.  Only if the probe bounces will the address be disabled.  The
      score is reset to zero when the probe is sent.  Also, bounce events are
      now kept in an event file instead of in memory.  This should help
      contain the bloat of the BounceRunner.

      New supporting variables in Defaults.py: VERP_PROBE_FORMAT,
      VERP_PROBE_REGEXP

      REGISTER_BOUNCES_EVERY is promoted to a Defaults.py variable.



If your MTA doesn't support VERP, then this should have been pretty obvious to you.
