Hoho! EZMLM bounce warnings look rather like (from memory, very rough):

------------
Hi, this is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the foo mailing list.

Messages to you have been bouncing. I've kept the first bounce for you,
see below.

To retrieve the messages send mail to foo-get.12345.

Here's the list of messages that have been bouncing

123
135
4711

----

[first bounce of a mail that ezmlm tried to send to you]
----------------


If ezmlm sends you warnings of bounced spam, then it's time to contact
the list owner and ask him to tighten his anti-spam filters that are
in front of the list.
