[Mailman-Users] FAQ 5.6 Cannot Find/Receive Bounce Messages

[Pantejo, Barbara FTL]

Is there a way to enable all bounces, even the ones that mailman can handle,
to go to the list owner? 

Thanks,
Barbara

	Questions should not be asked in the FAQ.  I have deleted this

	Mailman has a bounce processing system.  It will try to 
automatically handle all bounces, and anything it can't handle will 
be sent to the list owner.

	So far as I know, there's no way to turn off the bounce 
processing system, or even effectively disable it.  But you should
