Here is a sample bounce message:The wording of that says that your service isn't accepting some mail, rejecting them, "bouncing" them back to the list. But without seeing some of the bounced messages (in full), it's hard to tell what it doesn't like about them. We can see it doesn't like something about Patrick's message, but not what it objects to. For what it's worth, "bouncing" is usually a bad idea. It's supposed to be done during the intake attempt, aborting the transfer from the sending mail server. That sending mail server can then act on it appropriately. Unfortunately, it's often done after the message has actually being accepted, and that is completely wrong...
You've misinterpreted the message. This was the mailing list attempting to deliver Stephen's message to Patrick. gmail rejected it, so the mailing list notified Stephen that this happened.
