Folks,
Why does this keep on happening? What is google doing to cause this to
happen? Is it doing greylisting and mailman ignoring the retry-after time?

to cause this

"Bouncing mail", presumably. Certainly every time I've gotten that and
investigated, I've found record of my rejecting list mail.
But why are you asking us rather than Google (who is in a position to
tell you what they're doing, including mail they reject) or our
listowner (who's in a position to tell you what behaviour the list is
seeing from Google)?

am sure Jay does, but that's the kind of thing to look at. It's impossible
to please every server and how it handles the greylisting type stuff, and
dance the fine line to not look like spam. Gmail is not forgiving of such
things, and thus the extra bounces to verify that the message is legit. It
would almost be necessary to set up an SMTP smart spool to handle gmail if
you wanted zero bounces, not really worth it. This is simply the case of
an older mailer program hitting up against the gmail Bournemouth, you have
to play by their rules.

Is THAT the gmail Bournemouth?
It manages gmail and has been bouncing?
Maybe it just needs another blank 5.25" floppy to hold the excess to stop
the bouncing?
(Perhaps any single email larger than 200K SHOULD bounce)
It can compete favourably with the PET at the top of the page.
Did they sell 10,000 of those?

I've never been to

Pleasant little

that yahoo and aol emails suffer from this, their address come through
in the mailing list but the sender is not yahoo or aol (it's the
mailing list server), and there are some hoops to go through to avoid
those problems (I had to set an option to not automatically have those
emails go to spam).
So, in short, I think the problem is caused by posts from some
particular subscribers getting bounced by some servers (among them,
gmail), not that the receving servers (e.g. gmail) are overloaded or
otherwise failing.

This is absolutely correct. As an admin that manages a CHM list on
Google, I agree that the problem is NOT with Google Gmail per se.
They are merely enforcing what they promised to do months ago.
Enforce the DMARC policy. Here's a typical response from Google when a
mail server does not follow practices initiated to reduce SPAM (actual
domain hidden by me with xxxxxx.xxx):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com [173.194.203.27]
SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:
550-5.7.1 Unauthenticated email from xxxxxx.xxx is not accepted due
to domain's 550-5.7.1 DMARC policy. Please contact the administrator of
xxxxxx.xxx domain 550-5.7.1 if this was a legitimate mail. Please visit
550-5.7.1 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/2451690 to learn
about the 550 5.7.1 DMARC initiative. q12si89233361pgc.52 - gsmtp
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
BTW, this typically happens when an email is posted to an email server
which is then redirected to Gmail via another server.
More and more mail systems will be enforcing DMARC policies - so it
would be good to make sure your ISP is setup correctly.
FYI - I use MANY email vendors (yahoo, comcast, arrl, acm, any my own
bickleywest.com, cerfnet.net, cerfnet.org, etc.) and ALL conform to the
DMARC policy and have no issues sending to or receiving mail from gmail.
Cheers,
Lyle

FWIW, the account on which I'm sending this is the UW's domain hosted by
Gmail, and I've had no problems sending email to the list. Just another
