1.  Have you tried restarting Mailman?
2.  If you did, and that didn't work, did you try rebooting?
3.  Is there anything in any of the queue directories
($var_dir/queue/*)?  $var_dir is often /var/lib/mailman, but other
directories are used.
If they are in .../shunt or in .../bad, there's something complex
going on, but if they're in the other queue directories restarting
Mailman should clear them out.
4.  Is your MTA running (if other mail is going out, it is)?
5.  Is mail piling up in the MTA queue (most mail systems have a
"mailq" command to check this)?
6.  Is it happening at a specific recipient domain?  Gmail (and maybe
other Google sites) are famous for suddenly deciding to eat all
your list mail without telling you.  They're not the only ones who
do it, just particularly famous.
7.  If you have a smarthost (outgoing mail gateway) configured, check
the same things as for 4 and 5.

There are other things to check but that should keep you busy for a
while.

[Mailman-Users] Emails not being sent, but showing up in archives?

2024-01-03 Thread Seeds of Success
Hello, 

For the last two months or so, the emails that I send out on the mailman list 
do not get sent out to the subscribers, but do show up on the archived threads. 
I am not very mailman savvy, and have recently taken over admin roles from 
someone else. Any guidance on how I might address the issue would be 
appreciated!
