    Ok, but who is the "sender" in case of a mailing list?

    RFC822 says (4.4.4):
      o The "Sender" field mailbox should be sent notices of
          any problems in transport or delivery of the original
          messages. If there is no "Sender" field, then the
          "From" field mailbox should be used.

    Maybe this was obsoleted by RFC2822...

    The problem is that the original message went correctly through the
    mailing list, and then a screwed-up mailer sent the message back to
    the list. Why would the author care of such bounce? This should be a
    matter of the list admin.
