The return path is where bounces go to. Do you want LISTSERV to 
handle bounces for you or do you want bounces to go to each person 
who posts to the list? (Hopefully, you are cringing at the very 
thought and I don't need to say more about that).

It is a real email address in LISTSERV. It's where bounces go to for 
that email address on that list. I have no idea why PostFix would 
refuse addresses with '*' in them. According to RFC822, they are 
perfectly legit. As a matter of fact, we have Postfix running on one 
of our development servers and it works just fine. I suspect it must 
be a configuration problem, but I can't help you with Postfix 
configuration.
