[Mailman-Users] Google distribution list as list admin

[Jon Gardner]

I have a list admin who is using a Google distribution list as the admin email for a Mailman list. Whenever Mailman sends an administrative email, the Google server responds thus:

>> Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
>> 
>>  <email address of Google distribution list>
>> 
>> Technical details of permanent failure:
>> Bounce messages should not be posted to a mailinglist.


Apparently Google is misinterpreting the From/Return-Path address of "mailman-bounces at ..." as a bounce. Has anyone else run into this issue? Obviously the workaround is to not use a Google distribution list as a Mailman list admin, but I'd sorta like to figure out a real fix.
