It's junk on this list that gets bounced by mail providers when LARTC tries 
to send it to the list members. Here's an example:

<andreas.klauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: host mailin.webmailer.de said:
    550 5.0.0 your mail contains a virus

I don't have any influence on the bouncing behaviour of my mail provider, 
all I can say is that it hardly ever bounces anything, because I do all 
the spam / junk filtering on my own machine.

Other mail accounts may have better spam / virus detection methods, and 
more aggressive bouncing behavior. LARTC is (ab)used to send out junk, 
your mail address doesn't like junk and bounces, LARTC doesn't like 
bounces and kicks you out.

The mailing lists needs to check for virus and spam before distributing it 
to all it's members.

Regards,
Andreas
