I have a situation where subscriber email addresses are being bounced after the failed address has been forwarded to an autoresponder. The problem is that the mailman strips the sender's address out of the response before it is sent to the administrator for action.

On the mailing list, I have the unsubscribe threshold set to 3 bounces, but the email response (bounce), while being recognized as a bounce, it processed as a post to the mailing list and is subsequently sent out to all list members, further, the sender is stripped from the headers and I cannot identify which account it comes from, since the autoresponder does not follow the usual process of identifying the offending mailbox in the body of the autoresponse.

I hope this is clear, and that I can find some configuration that resolves the issue ... previously to identify one of these email addresses, I had to send an email, then immediately unsubscribe everyone from the mailing list and let mailman respond with an unhandled bounce notification, only then was I able to identify the offending address ... but then I had to re-subscribe every list member, and while it only takes a minute to do so it is a real pain.

Thanks!

Keith
