I unsubscribe those people on sight. If these people can't handle messages posted to the list (or use an Email of an organization that can't handle it), they don't need to be on the list. On a good day, some sites still send bounces where they're supposed to go, the envelope sender, so of course, that's the listmaster, which means my mailbox. I'm not going to deal with an increasing number of bounces from political correct people. If they want to protect their fragile little eyes and minds, they can junk the mail, or at least not bounce mail from mailing lists.
