This message is a disaster. Is this an actual bounce as received? It
almost looks like an RFC 3464 compliant DSN except see comment below.

The message body is that of a MIME multipart message, but the main
content type is text/plain instead of

multipart/mixed; boundary="66728b7fa14ce3ed"

so the whole body is just one plain text part and is quoted-printable
encoded so that just changing the above Content-Type: won't work because
there is quoted-printable encoded content in the sub-parts including
sub-part headers.

I have seen the other replies in this thread, so I'm not adding much here.

Trying to recognize this in Mailman would be a major kludge and not
worth the effort.
