I am sure that the user subscribed under valid address. The e-mails
would have not made it as far as it did if it wasn't. What has
happened is that one of our fellow SuSE users has messed up his/her
SuSE 7.1 Postfix configuration. It is getting bounced back because a
DNS lookup on the bogus domain name fails. I have tried piecing
together an address out of bits in the header. Didn't work.
Presumably because it is redirected internally to a different username
than the original username. It is a Road Runner user in North
Carolina. I have a few more things to try.

O.K. I don't think I sent you any messages Corvin, but I assume it's because people *just* reply to messages, not checking where they're going?
Anyway: Would it not be feasible for postmaster@suse (or whoever) to set it up so invalid adresses get filtered out of the adresslist? Or rather: I presume it's already set up, so maybe the question would be "why don't it work in this case?"
<flamebait> I mean, this is ridiculous... When you sign up for the list, a valid email-adress is mandatory, is it not? IMO it should be. And don't new subscribers get verification, by email? And if *that* one bounces, surely it makes no sense adding that adress on the list??? I mean - I do *not* want to set up filters for this... </flamebait>

BTW: Any luck Jeffrey?

I think we get the message.
