I did the same and had the same problem...
I think it's because qmail checks the Return-Path address with the
badmailfrom list. And becasue these messages are going through the
qmail-list the Return-Path address is modified for each member of the
mailing list. for example, the Return-Path for message I receive is
as follows.
Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
So if I put this in the badmailfrom I'd be blocking all mail from te
list.
If anyone comes up with another solution, please post...
