I sent a polite note to the postmaster at beach-bum-solutions.com ;-)

just some pasted headers with an explanation of what was going on. I'm no
expert, but I think he is using the wrong headers to bounce this stuff
( i.e. it is going to senders rather than list address, where it would
obviously get bounced since, as far I know, the postmaster is not
subscribed ! Of course he would have *rather a lot* of bounced mail if he
had it configured this way... )

Fortunately bogofilter sees these bounce mails from the beachbum as spam
here ;-)
