OK I think this is happening - spams are being sent to the list
owners, and bounced.  These bounce emails are then delivered to
mailman-bounces.

Now I'm not sure where mailman-bounces is defined and how my email is
in that, but one way to fix it is to remove me.

Is spam filtering enabled on lists.okfn.org? The relevant part of the
config seems to be missing.
This guy seems to have a method for the list owners:
