[OT]/[Meta] Subscribers of gentoo-user using Microsoft e-mail services

The subscriber which has subscribed to this list using a Microsoft
mailbox (@live.ru?) is still subscribed, and still has that mailbox set
to forward e-mails to a Gmail address.

Which would be fine, except Microsoft also still hasn't fixed the way
their servers do forwarding, meaning today I got another "undeliverable"
error message relayed to me from postmaster@outlook.com with
mx.google.com's complaint about how Microsoft didn't set the correct
"Envelope-From" when forwarding the message...

This is still happening (I thought it had stopped happening, but it's
likely I just haven't posted in this list for a longer time).

Is there any chance this can be solved, or should I just resort to
training the spam filter on these messages from postmaster@outlook.com?

I had a similar problem earlier this year, related to a subscriber in Russia,
whose incoming messages from the list were being rejected for not having the
right ISP credentials set up. I checked with Zen and they were OK, and since
then the problem has not reappeared.
