Perhaps you should follow the list's directions from your initial
subscription confirmation (TO REPORT A PROBLEM see
http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail) and post the output of
postconf -n as well as appropriate log information. One possibility is you
have soft_bounce enabled which causes permanent errors to be treated as
transient errors. But without the requested information, we're guessing.
