Spammers or confused list members are sending mail to
siif-bounces at boa-graphics.com or siif-admin at boa-graphics.com. These
are addresses used by Mailman's automated bounce processing. When an
ordinary message arrives at one of these addresses, Mailman can't
parse it as a Delivery Status Notification and forwards it to the list
owner.

You can't stop spammers from mailing to the address, but you can stop
the notices by turning off bounce_unrecognized_goes_to_list_owner on
the admin Bounce processing page.
