That corresponds with the frequency of messages to the list.

Correct. what mailer are you running and what setting are you using
to cull empty sender messages.

Probably because all messages I receive from the lists have
Sender: "Dng" <dng-bounces@???>

as the sender. This is commonly set on lists so that bounce messages,
and other automated replies(out of office anyone?) do not pollute the
list. Admins can then go through the bounces and take appropriate
action.
So, in summary, it is a setting in your mailer that creates the error
messages. As a guess you need to relax a time parameter in that your
mailer is closing receipt of header too quickly or the link is dropping
out.
