If LISTSERV's notice to the owner contained the "problem" address in
the Subject:, an abbreviated NOMAIL (r)eply might look like:
 
From: thelist-owner@somewhere
To: LISTSERV@vmhost
Subject: Re: Delivery Error Notice Sent to TheList-L for [log in to unmask]
 
QUIET SET * NOMAIL FOR *
 
...or somesuch.
 
Methinks the biggest gotcha in implementing this would be parsing the
error text to conjure up the botched recipient's address so it could
be stuck in the header in the first place, since there are several
common formats for that in addition to a whole slew of homebrew ones.
