It's can be tough to find the address they're originally sent to,
especially if there's more than one address in that domain subscribed or
(worse yet) if it's an alias in a different domain. The error message is
generated via an alias (quit@...) and everything identifying the original
address is missing from the message or headers.
Some lists handle this with periodic probes, sending a unique message to
every address on the list that can identify the original address, and
looking at the bounces. It's can be a bit of work to create these if the
list software doesn't support it, however.
