The "Try again later." response didn't come from Mailman. It most likely came from The MTA because it doesn't know how to deliver list mail. >The server that our website and the Mailman program reside on is the same, and >I am able to log in and make changes to the information on our website, but I >am not able to send any messages, nor do I know of a way to see if there is >something wrong with Mailman (it doesn't seem to be the server...).

Whoever it is, they need to make sure that the mail server can deliver to Mailman. >I am also wondering... in the future, if there is a way to manually send >e-mails out to the list (i.e. from within the Mail List Administrative area)? Not from the web interface. There is a Mailman tool, bin/inject, that can queue a message for Mailman from the command line in a shell. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
