[opensuse] Is postfix "list aware"?

Hi,

Why does postfix bounces back list messages to the originator, instead of
to the "envelope from"? Why doesn't it notice that it is mail bulk list,
and refuse to bounce?

Look at this:

| The Postfix program
|
| <lists+suse@....> (expanded from <mlist-suse@.....>): delivery
| temporarily suspended: connect to
| /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp]: Connection refused
|
| <spool@.....>: delivery temporarily suspended: connect to
| /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp]: Connection refused


If this can be avoided with some configuration change, suse default
configuration for postfix should have it (is it possible? :-? ). But these
bounces should not occur, or they should be bounced to the envelope sender
(ie, novell/suse), not to us. The mail list software is clever enough to
suspend the subscription when it sees the bounces. Supposedly.
