First question: is it possible to see the actual bounce messages before the user's subscription is disabled? When mailman notified me that his address was disabled, it included the bounce message that caused it, but before then, I couldn't figure out how to see it. I found the bounces in my sendmail (maillog) log and my mailman log, but not the actual message.
The strange thing is that I can personally send him messages to the same address and from the exact same server (this is just a personal server that I have). Stuff only bounces when it comes through mailman.
Here is the data from the bounce message:

... while talking to mail.sysnet.net.:
<<< 553 Requested action not taken: mailbox name not allowed or chunk too largeMAIL From:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> SIZE=2293
501 5.6.0 Data format error
I looked in the FAQ and archives for "chunk too large" but didn't find anything. A larger google turned up some similar reports but no suggested solutions.
Now, this user sends me this: "My sysadmin tells me that mailman is not issuing a "mail" command when contacting sysnet so mail from the listserv is bouncing."
What does this mean? I'm not a big sysadmin, I just have a small email/webserver that I use for personal use. I'm reasonably familiar and competent with Linux, but am not an expert. Can anyone provide me some answers or clues? My guess is that his ISP is screwed up and they're not talking sense, but I'd like some confirmation before telling him that.
I'm running Mailman 2.1.4, RedHat 9, and Sendmail. Thanks in advance for any help.
