Bruce:

Messages being sent to YOU were being bounced?

That would make sense - but not messages you 
sent to the list being bounced (back to you?)

In any event - a quick look at the email headers
of the message(s) in question should tell you
(or this list admin, ISP admin, etc.) what is
going on.

Note: unfortunately a LOT of spam gets sent
out using forged from/reply-to addresses ...
your address could be used in such a fashion.
Additionally - some worms/virus also send their
spew using a similarly forged address ...
often one of the addresses that are found on
an infected system.
