This looks like a German Z-Net or Fidonet Gateway, the message is
recipient known, mail undeliverable.
I'm sorry, I said in a previous mail that it meant recipient
_un_known. Apparently the gateway knows that the system is currently
unreachable or something.

This is most probably a broken news->mail gateway that creates bounces
back to the original poster and not the address of the gateway
maintainer (which seems to be a common problem on non-RFC-compliant
mailers, since they don't have a separate Sender apart from From:).
You could try to mail postmaster@..., but since it is a non-RFC
system, there may not be one.
I would suggest procmail (if you have a unix shell account), if you
only have win95, use e.g. MS internet mail, I think it has mail
filtering features or Eudora.
