[Mailman-Users] 2 questions...removing headers & viewing bounces

[Golda Velez]

Thanks for the quick reply!

Is there any way to view the full bounce responses with headers?  I'm just
getting the actual message back, with none of the SMTP bounce headers that
would explain why they are bouncing.  And, I can send mail individually to
the users on the list with no problem.

My apologies if this is obvious, but I didn't see anything on it in the
docs I read...

seem to be able to view the actual bounced message in order to see why.  I
have a list with 4 users including myself, and the 3 remote users are all
reporting bounces on every message, even though I can mail them by hand
without a problem.  (Maybe related to my header removal?  But some of the
bounces were before I did that)
