While you're fixing this, can you make sure that your (probably
fetchmail) setup stops taking a message addressed e.g. To: Colin Watson,
Cc: debian-user, and forwarding an additional copy of the message to me?
It should ignore recipients it doesn't know anything about rather than
trying to "helpfully" pass them on.
There have been a few complaints about this on developer lists recently
