I probably didn't understand the question (or the problem...), but it sounds like you had a simple problem that some of the posts were ignored, but now everything is working fine.  This delay could have been a simple matter of when cron started up the proper scripts. 
 
The current version of Mailman does not use a daemon to run its processes - instead cron is used to startup several sub-processes that use lock files to monitor each other (so they don't step on each other).  The news gating processes may not start for several minutes.

Subject: [Mailman-Users] Gateway a news group doesn't get first dozen messages


Hi folks,

I have mailman 2.0.6 and when I gateway a news group the first couple of dozen messages are not gatewayed even though I have the "CatchUp" option set to No.  New incoming messages get gatewayed just fine.

Both news groups are on the same news server and are configured the same.  Does anybody have any suggestions about what the problem could be.

Thanks

...Dean...
