Hello!

I'm getting "bounces" like this from a misconfigured site which bounces
to the header From instead of the envelope from.

Perhaps that recipient should just be removed from the list?

The "bounce" has envelope from
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  (should be empty!)
header from
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and stems from
  [193.74.71.21] (helo=xizor.is.scarlet.be)
  (helo matches the reverse-mapping of the IP, double reverse check
  matches)

Its received lines seem to be echoed from the original mail (bad!).

The upmost received lines from the original mail are:
  Received: from (smtp-vbr10.xs4all.nl [194.109.24.30])
        by fundy.is.scarlet.be  with ESMTP id j9NJNaoW011305
        for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>;
        Sun, 23 Oct 2005 21:23:36 +0200
  Received: from bag.python.org (bag.python.org [194.109.207.14])
        by smtp-vbr10.xs4all.nl (8.13.3/8.13.3) with ESMTP id j9NJNV5u040983
        for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sun, 23 Oct 2005 21:23:36 +0200 (CEST)
        (envelope-from [EMAIL PROTECTED])
  Received: from bag.python.org (bag [127.0.0.1])
        by bag.python.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E0E2B1E411D
        for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sun, 23 Oct 2005 21:23:14 +0200 (CEST)

So something at or after smtp-vbr10.xs4all.nl or fundy.is.scarlet.be is
heavily misconfigured. Please fix this (CC is set to people who could be
responsible): DSNs should have an empty (null) envelope sender and
should be sent *only* to the envelope sender of the original message,
the header (From/Reply-To) should never be evaluated for creating
DSNs/bounces.

Kind regards,

Hannah.

I don't know whether there's a specific knob in mailman itself, but
you could either just not publish the list info address at all, or
deny access to it, using appropriate web server configuration (access
control or rewrite rules to show explanatory text instead).
