Fwd: ezmlm warning

This was the message everyone got, I assume? Begin forwarded message:

From: php-general-help@lists.php.net Date: July 20, 2011 1:08:54 AM CDT To: tamouse.lists@gmail.com Subject: ezmlm warning Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the php-general@lists.php.net mailing list. I'm working for my owner, who can be reached at php-general-owner@lists.php.net. Messages to you from the php-general mailing list seem to have been bouncing. I've attached a copy of the first bounce message I received. If this message bounces too, I will send you a probe. If the probe bounces, I will remove your address from the php-general mailing list, without further notice. I've kept a list of which messages from the php-general mailing list have bounced from your address. Copies of these messages may be in the archive. To retrieve a set of messages 123-145 (a maximum of 100 per request), send an empty message to: <php-general-get.123_145@lists.php.net> To receive a subject and author list for the last 100 or so messages, send an empty message to: <php-general-index@lists.php.net> Here are the message numbers: 313991 --- Enclosed is a copy of the bounce message I received. Return-Path: <> Received: (qmail 27040 invoked for bounce); 8 Jul 2011 09:23:10 -0000 Date: 8 Jul 2011 09:23:10 -0000 From: MAILER-DAEMON@lists.php.net To: php-general-return-313991-@lists.php.net Subject: failure notice Hi. This is the qmail-send program at lists.php.net. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <tamouse.lists@gmail.com>: 76.75.200.58 failed after I sent the message. Remote host said: 550 Won't forward failure notice

I retrieved the indicated message, 313991: php-general Digest of: get.313991 Topics (messages 313991 through 313991): Mail System Error - Returned Mail 313991 by: rick.duvals.ca Administrivia: --- Administrative commands for the php-general list --- [snip] --- Enclosed is a copy of the request I received. [snip] From: Tamara Temple <tamouse.lists@gmail.com> To: php-general-get.313991@lists.php.net [snip] Here, finally is the content of message 313991: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- --icgablonoalgccfgjigf Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline; filename="php-general_313991.ezm" Message-ID: <82.30.21966.62CC61E4@pb1.pair.com> From: rick@duvals.ca To: php-general@lists.php.net Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2011 17:21:42 +0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0005_220BC4AD.040604D6" Subject: Mail System Error - Returned Mail ------=_NextPart_000_0005_220BC4AD.040604D6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Your message was undeliverable due to the following reason: Your message was not delivered because the destination server was not reachable within the allowed queue period. The amount of time a message is queued before it is returned depends on local configura- tion parameters. Most likely there is a network problem that prevented delivery, but it is also possible that the computer is turned off, or does not have a mail system running right now. Your message was not delivered within 6 days: Server 110.41.11.40 is not responding. The following recipients did not receive this message: <php-general@lists.php.net> Please reply to postmaster@lists.php.net if you feel this message to be in error. ------=_NextPart_000_0005_220BC4AD.040604D6-- --icgablonoalgccfgjigf-- So it appears as though a reply from a failing mail server bounced back to the list manager, which sent out the bounce message, which got reflected back to the entire list. I believe the error to be at rick@duvals.ca server.
