Richard,
This was working before with this config of sendmail. I am setting it lower for testing and see if that fixes it. Do you happen to know where that setting is for sendmail?
In /usr/share/sendmail/README of the Linux box that runs my Mailman lists I found:
<quote>
confMAX_RCPTS_PER_MESSAGE MaxRecipientsPerMessage
[infinite] If set, allow no more than
the specified number of recipients in
an SMTP envelope. Further recipients
receive a 452 error code (i.e., they
are deferred for the next delivery
attempt).
</quote>and /usr/share/sendmail/m4/proto.m4 contains:
_OPTION(MaxRecipientsPerMessage, `confMAX_RCPTS_PER_MESSAGE', `100')
but /etcsendmail.cf contains:
#O MaxRecipientsPerMessage=100
which being commented out presumably doesn't affect operation of the Snedmail instance.
But I am not a Sendmail expert. I've put this back onto the list in case someone out there is.
Thanks for the help.
Joe

You could try setting a lower value for the MM configuration variable SMTP_MAX_RCPTS in $prefix/Mailman/mm_cfg.py. The installation default in
Defaults.py is 500 which may be too high for your Sendmail configuration. See the comments in Defaults.py
