it was kinda urgent, that's why i tried on the list first. after that i did
some search and found the solution, exactly what you said.
thx a lot for the help tho.

after solving this, i figured, on my lists nobody ever uses digest mode, so i
just disabled it on all lists, then deleted digest.mbox. i guess with this
setup, if a list gets a broken message which mailman can't handle, it will be
shunted and that's it, the rest of the list and messages won't be affected,
am i right?

and what happens with the archiving? the message gets archived before, or
after a successful delivery? in another words, is there a chance that a
broken message will be archived?
