I can't find an address to complain about the mailing list itself, so apologies but I'm posting directly to this list. Every time I post to this group, I get returned mails about OTHER subscribers' invalid accounts, like the one below. What's up? This seems to be a new phenomenon. Should the postmaster@postgresql.org be getting these and discarding them?
Thanks,
Craig

Is this when you're replying to a post or creating a new post? If the
former, and you're using reply-to-all, you'll be sending one message
to the list and another directly to the poster of the message you're
responding to. The directly sent message is outside of the list
entirely, so any returned mail is also outside of the list. I've seen
this happen occasionally myself. Could this be what you're seeing?
AFAICT, such messages sent to the list *do* get filtered out.

Thanks to both for your answers. But no -- It's for new posts. In fact, when writing the email that started this thread, it was only to pgsql-performance@postgresql.org (I double-checked by using emacs on my Thunderbird "Sent" folder), yet I still got another "undeliverable" reply along with your message:

sure this individual wasn't listed in any of your CC or BCC addresses?

This means that usaemail.enpocket.com has seriously misconfigured mail
software --- it's bouncing undeliverable messages to the From: address
rather than to the envelope sender (which will be pgsql-performance-owner
for a message coming through the pgsql-performance list). This is
generally considered sufficiently unfriendly behavior that proof of it
is grounds for instant ejection from a mailing list, because the From:
address is someone who has no control over where the mailing list tries
to deliver to. Certainly it's grounds for ejection from any PG list.
Send the bounce message with full headers to the list admin (Marc
Fournier, scrappy at postgresql.org) and martin@usaemail.enpocket.com
will soon be an ex-subscriber.

Does the message come from postgresql.org or is the bounced email coming from these specific users
when you include them in reply-all?
