Subject: [Exim] Exim and bounces
I've been getting a lot of the following bounces on a single message. It
is only on this one list and it doesn't happen every message. I've reported
it to Listar development and they said it was Exim's fault. I've reported it
to Exim development and they said it was Listar's fault. Well, I'm tired of
seeing an empty bounce from this one list nearly every time a message goes
through. Will the two teams please talk to one another on this topic? One of
the two programs is at fault!

Sample bounce:
