[Mailman-Users] AOL subscriber bounces

I've noticed that a few of my list subscribers are using AOL's functions to
block email from certain senders, who are on my lists.  So as a list admin, I
get all these AOL bounces.  Is there a simple script that can be used to
direct these nastygrams bacl to their AOL user, so that the user can get
nagged instead of me?

The message looks something like:

FROM: Mail Delivery Subsystem
TO: <list-admin>

Your message was not delivered because the user is not accepting mail from
helpless at hotmail.com.

        aolusername

Note that the aolusername isn't followed by "@aol.com", like it should be, to
be parsed as a bounce.
