M-Users,
I'm running Mailman 2.1.5 on FreeBSD 5.5 and have been getting lots
of entries like the following
in my syslog email every morning.

The bounce addresses are disguised but legitimate ... the addresses
that have been
"Deferred" are not on my lists. I may be missing a basic
"spam-proofing" setting ?? Or
have they just harvested my listnames in an attempt to get their
junk-mail past others
email spam-blockers??
Can I prevent this?
Thanks,
Steve
