These messages are  normally delivery errors. If you bounce  them back to
the sender,  you're in fact  bouncing them back  to the mail  system that
generated  the bounce,  which will  either reply  with another  bounce or
throw them away. Only the list owner  can take action by deleting the bad
address.
