Barry was speaking about Mailman 2.1 there, you don't start the qrunners from cron in Mailman 2.1 In Mailman 2.0.x when you start a second qrunner for the same Mailman installation, the new qrunner will just exit. This doesn't help you. (In the possibly-pretty-unique situation that I have, with _many_ Mailman 2.0.x installs per server, it's a bad idea to start those multiple qrunners directly from cron.)
