Can the mailing list be checked so that we don't receive non-delivery reports from one of the subscribers, which appears to have a false email address, and whose emailserver constantly reply with the bogous address that I did not indicated (cammackmariaicllrvdge, apparently routed through mail.kaufmanisd.net, but this address does not resolve, not even its MX mail router) ?

This bogous reply attempts to use forged replies, as if it came "From:" my own ISP, but the routing is clear, my ISP does not use a "FirstClass" mailer for such replies, and it is not located at the indicated IP address [207.235.150.4] which does not belong to my ISP but is external, somewhere on the Internet.

This means that a subscriber to the translate list is the email address of a zomby running spamware, or a routing address used by a spammer, and that spammer is using possibly hijacked IP blocks.

Routing details of the NDN mail I receive each time are following...

Thanks, Philippe.

Which is reassigned in a very strange way to:

However, the internet policy requires that reassigned IP addresses MUST run a whois server, and that the contact address is valid. Here the contact address is unreachable.
