Re: Delivery failure (users@spamassassin.apache.org)

Anyone else seeing this junk when sending messages to the list?

gbierman at mochamail.com, apparently the address at this site
subscribed to the SA users list - please tell the postmaster of your
system to fix this.

Please fix your brokenware....

1) The envelope-sender of mail from the SA-users mailing list would be
the list address, not my address. SPF is supposed to check the
envelope-sender address, not the "From: " address in the message
headers. See also:
http://spf.pobox.com/faq.html#whichfield
which specifically explains the issues you must 

2) Your system is also apparently sending the delivery failure to the
"From: " address of the email, rather than to the envelope-sender.
