Bounced Message but still sent to list



This was: Spamassassin Config Questions, as it originated after I
installed spamassassin. But I'm splitting it off now for 2 reasons.
1) Cause it's sort of it's own problem now.
2) Testing to see if it causes another bounce.

This is the alias I have in ".muttalias"
alias deb-user Debian User List <debian-user@lists.debian.org>

I've checked everything at these locatins for ANY reference to
"debian_user"

/etc/defaults/*
/etc/aliases
/etc/exim/*
/etc/spamassassin/*
/usr/share/spamassassin/*
/home/jade/.muttrc
/home/jade/.muttalias
/home/jade/.procmailrc

I still can't find a reference to "debian_user"
