Having looked at the mailman bounces log I find that quite a few bounces
have been received correctly and dealt with, both before and after the
ones that are redirecting to me.

The offending email address is clearly identified in the bounced message
so it should be picked up. If not, I thought the default was to discard
it.

Interim solution is just to manually remove this address but the purist
in me wants to know why its not happening automatically!
