I'm not sure about MCIMail, but I get exactly the same sort of message
from one of the users on my list who uses CCMail.  I suspect it's a
user setting problem, or perhaps a local configuration error in that
site's CCMail program, but every time that user replies to a message
from my list, the mailer insists on including the original message
header at the end of the reply, "Sender:", "From:" or "Reply-To:"
fields and all.  LISTSERV must think the message got misrouted or
corrupted and sends his submission to me as an error notification
instead of a request for approval (my list is fully moderated).  I've
notified him of this behavior, but he seems unable to troubleshoot it
from his end.  I, therefore, have to reconstruct his messages before
sending them on to the list (he's a valuable contributor).  When he
originates (as opposed to replies) His messages go through OK, though
they still have a vestigal header hanging off the end that I have to
delete before approving his message.  Apparently this mini-header isn't
sufficient to confuse LISTSERV.
