This would have been catched by Lintian:

 E maintainer-address-causes-mail-loops-or-bounces

    Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com>

 W unknown-field-in-dsc

    original-maintainer

(from http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com.html#postfix)

At least the first one looks like a candidate for auto-rejects to me.

The latter one is likely also very typical for this issue, at least
with that specific header field.

http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com.html
gives btw. an idea on which other packages currently have the very
same issue. :-)
