The mailing list software does send a bounce.  People (like you?) often
ignore it or, amusingly, send a copy of the bounce (which points to a
web page describing the problem) as html email to postmaster asking
whats wrong.

Complaining about this and sending along a forwarded message duplicating
the information that belongs in the header of the message is pretty
pointless and off-topic.  Please don't kvetch about email problems here.
It's very likely that the thousands of people who read this mailing list
don't really care about your inability to send email.
