You need to not tell me how to run my own mailing list.  My list runs
fine, and in fact DOESENT send mail as mailer-daemon:

It sends it as <list>-admin at sunhelp.org, with the reply-to sent to go back
to the list.

What happened is that the reply-to on list mail is set to go back to the
list, so when <$USER>'s mailbox fills up, the mail goes back to the list.
99% of the time the list software catches this, and sorts it off into my
list-admin folder, however every now and then you get an oddball response
(like Tim's) that ends up making it through the filters and back to the list.
