Well, it should definitely NOT bounce back to the OP, as there is nothing we
can do about it.

And I'm sure the list administrator doesn't want to deal with every bounced
message; it's annoying enough for me to have to deal with errors on the few
posts I make.

I would say direct them to a special mailbox that can be grepped and cleaned
periodically for dead addresses.

Could the list software be set up to automatically remove problem email
addresses?
