It says there plain and clear:

Lists' postmasters were very helpful in pointing at errors in my setup
when I had the problems with the list in the past. Mail them, ask for
help.

The most probable cause of your troubles - you do not have DMARC policy
published, which means the whole Internet could send bounces to the list
on your behalf. SPF policy that you have published is not enough.

"whois ovh.net" will tell you all you need to know about it,
specifically - an abuse e-mail. Consider sending an e-mail there as
well.
Long story short - that host belongs to OVH, one of the Europe largest
hosting provider, and it's withing their power to excommunicate one of
their clients.

Because it's host owner who misconfigured that sorry excuse for an MTA
called "Kerio Connect", so it's sending bounces.

Because the list archive does not store bounces.

This e-mail is the consequence, not the reason of it. After all, it says
"we have already unsubscribed", so it was some other e-mail that got you
into this trouble.

Silently discarding spam was always OK.
Replying to the spammer via list was not and is not.
Bouncing spammer e-mail (which could happen due to MTA misconfiguration
on your part) will get you removed from the list.
