No we don't, and that's precisely the problem.  No such user exists, and
because CTM's list server is misconfigured, the bounces are coming
directly to us (as posters to the list) instead of back to CTM's list
server (where either an admin would notice and fix it, or if they were
running better software, would automatically deal with the problem).

You'll notice that anything we post to the list comes back to us (and to
list members) with Return-Path: <your-email-address>.  The return path
should really be the list admin, or an automated attendant.

I use Mailman (www.list.org) for running lists on my server, which
handles bounce management automatically.  For example, if I post to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], the message will be distributed with Return-
Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
