ezmlm (and listserv) can generate per recipient SMTP RCPT strings. it
depends on a transport which can deal with wildcard address on incoming
mail (qmail and lsmtp can). most transport systems will do the right thing
and return the bounce to the magic-cookie address but some gateways are
notorious for doing the wrong thing.
the bounce address will then tell you where it came from. e.g.
RCPT TO:<djb-qmail-owner-pjg=acsu.Buffalo.EDU@koobera.math.uic.edu>
the thing that answers djb-qmail-owner mail gets pjg=acsu.Buffalo.EDU as an
argument. i wanted to use a listserv one because they're even more
baroque but i don't have one handy.
