I'm running an old mailman - version 2.0beta5, installed by apt-get on a Debian "Potato" system - and it runs >30 mailing lists perfectly on a very old machine.
We're scheduled to cut over to a brand new Debian version soon, so we'll be upgrading to the newest mailman version and hopefully this problem will disappear, but in the meantime its driving me CRAZY! I have created a new list, bedridden, at: http://tertius.net.au/mailman/listinfo/bedridden Its got about 10 members so far, none on digest or nomail. Simple as you could get. No fancy anything, nothing I haven't done on countless other lists on the same machine that all run perfectly. Except that about every few messages, with no pattern I can detect, something gets "stuck" in ~/qfiles and no more messages go through for that list until the messages are deleted. I have gone through all the FAQ steps for trying to fix "no mail gets through" problems and there are no errors or problems anywhere reported, except these stray files in ~/qfiles, and if I move the offending files out of there mail starts to flow again ... and then a few messages later it happens all over again. Are there any solutions beside "upgrade upgrade upgrade"? Which is what I'm doing *anyway* as fast as possible.
