First of all, your question is a Qmail question, not a Mailman question. >From the Mailman standpoint, when you see a message like May 25 03:40:03 2015 (14302) <message_id smtp to list_name for nnnn recips, completed in ttt.ttt seconds In Mailman's 'smtp' log, Mailman has finished delivery of all messages to Qmail. If there were any issues with delivery from Mailman to Qmail, they will be logged in Mailman's 'smtp-failure' log. > But what is strange is that actually some of those messages were really > distributed : I am sure because I got return receipt emails for them ! > > So i am confused on the total distribution of my mailing to all > subscribers : is there a possibility so see the number of messages > processed or not yet processed directly from the server (logs...) ? Again, this is a Qmail question. What I suspect you're seeing is a result of Mailman delivering non-VERPed, non-personalized messages in chunks of up to SMTP_MAX_RCPTS recipients per SMTP transaction and Qmail experiencing retryable errors on some of the recipients in the chunk and delivering others. But ask someone who knows Qmail if you want a definitive answer. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
