The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

Once I was sending a message to my mailinglist, but it ended with an
error. The following entry is part of /var/log/sympa:

As you can see, every few seconds, bounced wrote an error message to
/var/log/sympa. The file reached a huge size after some time.

Maybe there is an application error. There is no /var/sympa directory;
Sympa is in /var/lib/sympa.

The error went away after I was deleting the boucefile.

Any idea?
