opensource.org did lose global DNS for a while a week or two ago,
because somebody forgot to pay the renewal fee.  Perhaps that somehow
caused this problem.

In fact, I just checked, and the two messages which bounced were ones
which I sent during the period that the global DNS was down.  They
weren't very important.
