I have just tested a post to a new list created with the 2.1.2 mailman. Pretty much the same behavior, the .pck and .db files are created in qfiles/out. They look normal when I peek in with dumpdb. But nothing leaves the machine. No apparent errors anywhere. Can I run the qrunner

Another quick update: I had old queue files in qfiles/out. So I cleared out everything in the folder and restarted all the qrunners. Now I can get the OutgoingRunner to send one post or one message. After it's restarted, it sends one message correctly. The next post or confirmation message after

Hi All: Probably a simple answer to this one, but I can't find it. I've authorised Joe Nonmember as an authorised sender to my list. Although he's a non-member and doesn't receive postings, he can post to it without administrative intervention. Now, how do I deauthorise him? He doesn't show
