the list is fine, it's NOT cs.huji's bounces that you see, it's www-mail.
the only solution for those things is moving to a list manager or MTA that
does VERP (namely, Qmail) to be able to resolve these problems, but
cs,huji can't do that overnight, and I can't volunteer Jonathan's machine
(the MX and www of linux.org.il) to do the exploding of the list just like
that, even though I'm pretty sure it will solve quite a few of those
problems. I once sugested this move, even for a day or two to test how
well it works and was refused by people on this list...
