If so, then Michael would be well advised to look at the mail 
filtering process that is being used on the mail system and the 
Mailman server.  For obvious performance reasons, you want to do all 
mail filtering on the inbound leg only, and avoid any further 
filtering on the outbound leg.

If that had been done in this case, the message would have been 
rejected before it ever got to Mailman, and once the message was 
cleaned up, it wouldn't have resulted in all the rejections from the 
outbound filter -- because there wouldn't have been any outbound 
filter.
