I set up two Gmail accounts to get around this, and filter the messages
using Thunderbird as a pop client. It's not like they're charging me
extra for the traffic or extra account...

Maybe I'm not understanding what is meant by "disappearing into the bit
bucket" but your test "OT - test of mailing from an unsubscribed address"
came through to me and is also in the archives.
that message came via Bruce's gmail account, despite the From: address;
mailman looks at the envelope-from info in the hidden "Received:" headers
rather than the From: line
i can attest from several experiences that messages from non-subscribers are
simply swallowed — there's no bounce message and they don't show up on the
list; i know because the plugin i use that selects an account for outgoing
messages sometimes doesn't work
Thanks for clearing that all up, Steve. Sadly, I can't see my own mail
to the list -- as the list forwards it, with intact headers -- because
Gmail saves a sent copy directly and ditches the copy from the list (I
suspect it discards duplicates based on the ID).
So my experiment was foiled by Gmail. :)
