Sounds like a non-comformant user e-mail system ALSO
e-mailing (via their REPLY) the RFC821 header which
typically appears like this:
 
MAIL FROM:<OWNER-listname@listhost>
 
Now if the non-comformant mail system uses that address,
then the mail is interpretted by LISTSERV@listhost to be
re-routed to the target listname's * ERRORS-TO= operand,
which might default to OWNER which means the first non-QUIET
owner, which means your FREENET account.
