No, the list doesn't have a virus! It does have a no-longer vaild address, however. When mail is "reflected" from "you" to the list, it still lists "you" in the "From:" header. Hence any undeliverable mail will result in a notice to the addresse in the From: header, not to the "list sender" itself.

Annoying, but normal for any Internect mailing list.
