Thanks Mark.

This helped me to figure it out...! The envelope sender is set to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], and it seems courier doesn't like that. I
verified that by telnetting into my mail server and got the same 517 syntax
error when I sent:

mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Is mailman-bounces one of the required aliases? How can I configure mailman
such that it uses a proper email address rather than providing
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ?
