We are now at the point where general discussions about the general case, without attaching specific details such as one of the returned messages, can only frustrate the lot of us who have been receiving these complaint messages for a very long time now. I think it must be about 3 years ago that we modified the BRL distribution system to insert a new Return-Path (which you should see in this message) to direct failure notices back to a BRL-list-maintainer. So, it seems to me that either you are citing a very old case, or you have a new case of some different kind of failure. It would be nice if you would send the relevant detailed information on your cataclismic case to postmaster@BRL so they might determine what you are so vaguely refering to. Thanks for trying to help!
