Are you sure? Are there no entries at all in the 'bounce' log other
than the 'unrecognized' ones.

Since you already have enabled full personalization for the list, you
can at no extra cost set

VERP_PERSONALIZED_DELIVERIES = Yes

in mm_cfg.py to enhance bounce recognition.

Are the bounce notices returned as unrecognized in English? Not the
text from Mailman which is in your list language, but the actual
attached bounce.

If you forward one or more of the actual bounce notices, we can see
what the recognition issue is and update the bounce recognizers if
necessary. Without the intact actual bounce, we can't tell you
anything.
