After we updated, mailman started to send "bounce message w/no discernable addresses" messages to us (list admins). It seems that mailman is not able to parse bounce messages sent from opensmtpd.
Please check an example of a bounce message from opensmtpd:

We managed to fix the problem by editing the file 'mailman/

patch follows attached

Thank you for the report and suggested patch. If possible, please post the entire, raw bounce message including all headers. We need that for the testing data. Also, depending on the headers and MIME structure of the message, SimpleMatch may not be the optimum recognizer.
