I think you're not setting the "envelope from" correctly. While the
e-mail itself has your normal e-mail address, the bounce is going to the
address I quoted above, so apparently that is the envelope sender.

E-mail delivery works with the addresses in the envelope, and actually
the "From:" in the headers of the mail are not related to that. It would
appear that your ISP's server ends up delivering the mail somewhat like
this:

MAIL FROM:<ftp51246-2575596 at sh4-5.1blu.de>
RCPT TO:<gnupg-users at gnupg.org>
DATA
...
From: Matthias Apitz <guru at unixarea.de>
...
.

That envelope sender is causing problems further down the road, leading
to a bounce.

If you tell me off-list what MUA you're using to send the mail I might
be able to help configure it correctly.

HTH,

Peter.
