I've attached the bounce message from "gcs.gateway" (really ns.albertsons.com)
for your perusal...

What I don't understand is how list.cr.yp.to is sending the mail into
albertsons.com - I don't think it is. Are you sure you don't have a
smtproute (or equivalent sendmail construct ) pointing into albertsons.com?
In any case it's still broken - I've had to firewall 167.234.1.10
because I got sick of seeing it in my logs - sorry...
I also don't understand how 167.234.1.10 (or something in there somewhere)
is sending bounces back to the people in the From: header instead of the
envelope sender, which would have sent it harmlessly back to list.cr.yp.to
(except that you would have been automatically unsubbed from the list :),
and avoided this whole thing...
