It has just occurred to me, as to why the messages had not bounced; they had
bounced, but, with iinet apparently altering the From addresses, the bounce
messages had no valid email address, to which to be delivered; so, no doubt, the
bounce messages bounced.
By the way, with iinet either eating most of the emails, or, just delaying them
by a matter of days, if the message above got to the mailing list, it has not
yet come from the mailing list, back to me.
Perhaps, in a few days, or weeks, when iinet either wakes up their pigeons, or,
makes the pigeons spit out the messages that they have eaten, ...
