If the above doesn't help, check Mailman's retry queue and smtp-failure log. There may be some issue between Mailman and the MTA causing Mailman to think the message wasn't accepted (or some recipients weren't accepted) when it was. If this is the case, you can verify that the retry queue entry (qfiles/retry/*.pck) is the message with either Mailmans bin/dumpdb or bin/show_qfiles pointed at the entry and if it is the offender, just remove it. Then the smtp-failure log entries may help you understand what happened. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
