Shunting occurs whenever any of Mailman's 8 queue runners encounters an unanticipated exception. It can occur during archiving by ArchRunner, in which case it may only affect the archive, during delivery by OutgoingRunner, in which case it affects only delivery, during processing by IncomingRunner, in which case it affects lots depending on where in the incoming process it occurred, and so forth. There is always an entry in Mailman's error log corresponding to the shunted message, unless perhaps the original problem involves logging, which gives the exception and a traceback and which is required to fully understand what happened. > > ~mailman/bin/dumpdb ./ >1263615579.8123469+01710ea356e0b7ebc47902b9d7adb839f7e82aa1.pck >[----- start pickle file -----] ><----- start object 1 -----> > From bv...@uci.edu Fri Jan 15 20:19:39 2010 [...] ><----- start object 2 -----> >{ '_parsemsg': False, > 'adminapproved': 1, > 'approved': 1, > 'lang': 'en', > 'listname': 'mc-niebla', > 'original_sender': 'bv...@uci.edu', > 'origsubj': 'Rate your RA :)', > 'pipeline': ['ToUsenet', 'AfterDelivery', 'Acknowledge', >'ToOutgoing'], > 'received_time': 1263615579.8123469, > 'recips': [...], > 'rejection_notice': 'Your message was deemed inappropriate by the >moderator.', > 'sender': 'bv...@uci.edu', > 'stripped_subject': <email.Header.Header instance at 0x2e8b20>, > 'tolist': 1, > 'version': 3, > 'whichq': '/opt/nsp/mailman/qfiles/archive'} >[----- end pickle file -----] I can tell from the above metadata that this exception occurred in ArchRunner because of 'whichq', that it was a list post from a moderated member, approved by a moderator. I can't tell what the exception was or why it occurred without the error log information. Assuming there were no other shuntings of this message, it was delivered to the recipients. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
