This message looks very suspicious (i.e.faked). What do you see in
Eudora if you open the message and click 'Blah Blah Blah' to see ALL
the headers.

The alleged triggering bounce is not a bounce at all, but a copy of a
subscribe notification.

All the more reason to think the message is a fake since the
subscription wasn't disabled.
