There is no need to go to extreme measures; I think it is easier than
that. I do not have access to the oss.sgi.com logs, but surely the admins
can, and find out what were the posts that bounced and for what reason.

My guess is that they were sent from an invalid domain (no dns), or no
reverse dns, or something like that (not content analysis, that comes
once the mail is accepted and stored). Surely a filter for those is simple
enough to implement, and should not harm other participants.

Alternatively, don't automatically disable subscriptions that fast:

   Your membership in the mailing list xfs has been disabled due to
   excessive bounces The last bounce received from you was dated
   16-Sep-2015.  You will not get any more messages from this list until
   you re-enable your membership.  You will receive 3 more reminders like
   this before your membership in the list is deleted.

   To re-enable your membership, you can simply respond to this message
   (leaving the Subject: line intact), or visit the confirmation page at


THAT is the problem I'm having. The spam I get I can filter out, it is not that bad.
