I run a large mailing list (30,000 users). Every month I get a whole slew of bounces in my mailbox from the "mailing list memberships reminder" that get sent out. I thought that these were supposed to go to the program and automatically unsubscribe people, not go to me.

We are running a standard unmodified MacOS Server installation.

Here is a typical bounce:

From: Mail Delivery System
Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender
To: [email protected]

This is the mail system at host mail.COMPANY.COM.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can
delete your own text from the attached returned message.

                  The mail system

Any idea what to do?
