Rechecked the delivered message header and found the list bounces
address in the Sender: and Return-Path: headers, but I thought that was
normal on the delivered message.
Checked the archives and found the note "An HTML attachment was
scrubbed..." and a link to the html portion of the message. The rest of
the message (including the header) appears to be missing from the archive.
I didn't think the <LIST>-bounces address was considered a member of the
list... is it?
