Hi Len
It's likely the addy in Q is subbed to the list you sent to. And of course it
got relayed to it. Since it bounced for whatever reason you ended up with the
bounce notification as the originator of the post. That'd be my understanding
of what has happened. Prob just set a filter to filter out that addy and you
wont see it again
