Bug Description
I have a Debian 5 (Lenny) server with Postfix - Dovecot and Mailman 2.1.11 and 1700+ users.
The problem is when Dovecot returns the bounce message about "Quota exceeded", Mailman don't recognize the format:
Your message to <email address hidden> was automatically rejected:

It's suposed that Mailman recognize this type of message using the VERP feature, I have "recipient_

VERP must be enabled in Mailman. Putting
VERP_DELIVERY_ INTERVAL = 1
in mm_cfg.py will enable Mailman's VERP for all messages.
If you attach a copy of the raw bounce message from Dovecot to this report, I will try to update the heuristic recognizers to recognize it. You can obfuscate any personal information such as email addresses or domain names.
Note that if Dovecot sends an RFC 1894/RFC 3464 compliant DSN, it should be recognized.
