One question: should Mailman support doing an (optional) auto-kvetch back to the site's postmaster?
Two words: "Sorcerer's Apprentice".
treat them as hard bounces and if someone gets unsubscribed, encourage them to whine at their admin.
sending stuff to the admin directly from the outside will only piss off the admin. it won't solve anything, and you're kvetching on a point that is arguable depending on who's side of the argument you're on (if you want to kvetch at things, kvetch at places that send stupid vacation messages to the entire universe, endlessly, or places that send "confirming we read your message" messages to mail lists. Those are a LOT less ambiguously screwed up than the not-delivered-yet pain-in-the-necks...
