	That's on the mailing list server side.  If I understand 
correctly, the problem is that the mailing list server is sending out 
e-mail that claims to be from within the domain, which is being 
rejected by the mail server.  This is a classic case of 
mis-configuration of the mail server, and is not a problem that is 
likely to be able to be resolved by the external mailing list server.
