        The mailer is saying that it could not deliver to this address.
This means that your problem isn't with listserv per se, but with your
mailer configuration.

        This I'm not sure about.  It could be a problem, this may actually
be exactly what the problem is.  The ``security'' measure of disabling
relaying has been installed.

        This indicates that the user listserv is unknown on the domain,
listserv.opm.gov.  But, based on the above message being 551, this may
simply be a more general statement of that message.  (Am I reading that
right?)

        This indicates that this machise has a diffrent primary name, but
that shouldn't pose a problem, if it is aware that it is also listserv.
