Hmm ... I had an old script called majordomo-inject.  It did VERP
correctly but inefficiently, and overlapped Russ Allbery's "mjinject"
script.  I think it is a couple of years since I merged VERP
functionality into Russ's script and he continues to distribute it.

Please search the www.qmail.org web page for "mjinject" and check
Russ's FAQ and documentation.  My web pages are guaranteed out of
date. :-(

As it is supposed to be, so that you know which address bounced.

You need to set qmail up on your system so that mail to 411-owner-* is
handled by a person or better still by a script, so that these failing
addresses can be removed from your list.  I'll refer you to the
doucmentation for this -- I've not administered a mailing list in a
couple of years.
