I've so far gotten 55 of their spams for the 6 messages I posted

It's hard to igore them, I'd say.
There are so many of them that it is impossible to see the actual

because it is an official bounce-back error type message. Servers do
what they are supposed to do by RFC.
The problem is that someone is subscribing with a mail account, bouncing

which is bombarding any sender to this list.
Self defense dictates that we filter them to /dev/null using
procmail/sieve on the server, rejects on the server or mail filters in
your mail program.
Under the banner of a good offense makes a great defense, I proposed
some type of tar pit set up by a number of fedora users and within
minutes, the smtp servers at uol.com.br will be shut down and they will
investigate the issue.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
