That's note the case with my host. There's virtually zero load on it at the moment. It's a test server. Also fyi: all the inbound email to my list is showing up in my pipermail archive. >> Outbound email from my /bin/mail command is working ok; I am running a >> virtual lists domain, however, not sure if that has anything to do with it. > > You could be having some reverse DNS problems on the virtual domain. I tried that, or at least according to Dave Sill's "The qmail handbook," and not difference in behavior. I'm using tcpserver with qmail-smtpd, and here's my /etc/tcp.smtp: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 8:47pm [...vpopmail/etc] 136> cat /etc/tcp.smtp 127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" [EMAIL PROTECTED] 8:47pm [...vpopmail/etc] 137> >> While I'm hunting down this bug I was wondering if anyone could shed some >> light on it for me. > > From the small amount of information you've provided, it's hard > to say anything more.

There's absolutely zero qmail-smtpd log entries (from what I can tell) corresponding to a smtp usage from a localhost process. I'm grasping for air here and I find it rather frustrating. Is there any way I can isolate the outbound/smtp mailman process/program/module? I've got all my other outbound email mechanisms working, but I'm wading through a mountain of modules in mailman trying to figure out exactly which part is responsible for the outbound mail. Still digging...any other thoughts/troubleshooting welcome, particularly when trying to isolate the outbound email. -Matt ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
