Hi folks,
I'm running debian, postfix and mailman. Mailman has the
standard settings it hand when I used apt-get to install it. It
manages a half dozen lists with a few dozen people on it, which get a
few messages a month.
For a while everything worked just fine. Somewhere along the
line, messages started taking a few hours to be processed. Now they
seem to get hung up permanently.
After reading through the archives here, I poked around a bit in
/var/lib/mailman/logs.
I checked /var/log/mail.log, and in there I see my message being
dispatched off to /var/lib/mailman/mail/wrapper
Oct 24 20:47:37 bar postfix/nqmgr[25231]: BF3493CD2C: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
size=938, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Oct 24 20:47:40 bar postfix/local[8807]: BF3493CD2C: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
relay=local, delay=3, status=sent ("|/var/lib/mailman/mail/wrapper post foobar")
However, in /var/lib/mailman/logs, the only files that have been
touched anytime recently are smtp and subscribe:
Oct 11 06:41:03 2003 (5364) smtp for 8 recips, completed in 0.250 seconds
Oct 18 11:08:07 2003 (7251) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.068 seconds
Oct 24 20:54:27 2003 (8987) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.156 seconds
I think the "1 recip" was mailman notifying the address that I
just subscribed to the list. This leads me to suspect that mailman is
*sending* mail just fine, and *receiving* mail, but that the break is
somewhere in between.
