So if they aren't compliant, we treat them as the gobbledygook they are. No 
reason not to handle correct DSNs from sendmail, postfix, et al. This is a 
textbook case of "solving the universe's problems is too hard, so I won't 
take out the trash". And yes, I _did_ write the code to handle _exactly_ 
this case in the mailman 1.x days (along with a bunch of other bounce 
handlers). It's a shame it got lost.
