David- No, there is no way to automatically have uncaught bounces deleted ...you are getting them as admin because they represent bounces that Mailman doesn't know what to do with. Some ARE spam but they are spam that was sent out "from" the list address by spammers forging the address as the address the spam is coming from and the TO address is bouncing --- Mailman can't differentiate these bounces from normal actual list bounces where it can't find the bouncing address on the subscriber list to automatically process the bounces. I also get some bounces for "failed to deliver in the last so many hours will keep trying" type messages --- I just delete this notices of uncaught bounces unless it actually appears they are permanent bounces for a subscriber whose address MailMan can't decipher.

I am not referring to the garbage sent to the list by non-subscribers, I already have that set to be discarded, but I am referring to the stuff sent to Mailman's address noted above. A solid 95% or more of it is nothing more than a spammer who harvested the unusable address, and currently I have to figure out what it is and then delete it as it comes in one message at a time. Most commonly, it will have a subject line of "Uncaught Bounce Notification." My memory is not what it used to be any more, but it seems to me that deep in the bowels of our tools pages there was some rather obscure option to set that would automatically delete ALL such mail, such as the similar one that currently discards spam and other in our list moderation filters. I may be wrong, but I have searched and searched my tools pages for an option that would simply discard this stuff sent to Mailman as well, but now I cannot find such a thing. If anyone out there can either tell me where to find it, or else tell me with certainty there is no such an option to find, he/she will keep me from "chasing my tail" looking for it any longer.
