If you set bounce_notify_owner_on_disable and
bounce_notify_owner_on_removal to "Yes" on the Bounce processing page,
the list owner will receive a copy of the bounce message that caused
the disable or removal.

As Brad noted, you can't see the actual bounce messages preceeding the
ones that cause disable or removal (unless you somehow get your MTA to
send you a copy), but you can see their occurrence is noted in the
'bounce' log.
