First of all, thanks again for your help. Although my problem isn't
solved yet, you've given me a much better understanding of how Mailman
works.

Yes, I see those entries.

I see that too (after an "OutgoingRunner" processing line).

With the bounce notification off, I no longer get the "OutgoingRunner"
line, nor the bounce score / already bounced line. And "forwarding
unrecognized" becomes "discarding unrecognized".
So it looks like you have really pinpointed where the problem is.

All filtering, spam control, etc. that I can disable has been disabled.
Is there any way to see exactly what message(s) Mailman is trying to
send that are bouncing? Is there a config setting or option that would
cause all mail to be logged/saved/archived so I could see the structure
of the mail and perhaps identify why it would bounce?
Alternatively, is there a way to see the bounce that is coming back
after Mailman sends out the notification email?
