No, what's apparently happening is that EVERY piece of mail this user
receives is bouncing.  It doesn't matter how they get the mail,
whether by To:, Cc: (essentially the same thing), or Bcc:.  It's all
going to generate a bounce to the sender.

Anyway, it seems to be fixed now (probably the postmaster unsubscribed
them from the list or they fixed their broken anti-spam rules) so we
can all stop worrying after this little lesson in how SMTP works.
