This is due to some changes J.T. made so that majordomo can
automatically detect who it got a bounce for.  It's done by a couple
of other mailing list packages as well.

The `Received' lines have, and always will be, inserted so that errant
mail can be tracked.  The `Delivered-To' line is critical for loop
detection.

I believe the operative word is: `Suffer.'

J.T.'s changes should also make this impossible.  (Or at least that's
what I was told.  I haven't checked.)

I'd agree that the change should have been announced in advance.
