A confirmation request email was sent and Mailman is waiting for the user's confirmation. > The user has not received a verification email. Where should I look to > see what has happened?

Look in the system's mail log for the disposition of the confirmation request (very close in time to the subscribe log message). Most likely, it will have been sent and accepted by the MX for the user's domain. If so, the user should look in the her spam folder. Other possibilities are the user's ISP silently discarded or rejected the message after accepting it. In the latter case there should be a DSN logged in your mail log and possibly something in Mailman's bounce log. All this assumes nothing seriously wrong happened in Mailman, but if it did, there should be something in Mailman's error log. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
