Jon, thanks for such a quick response, The mailman dir is located on a sun T3 storage array which is directly attached to the machine running mailman in this case, a sunfire 280R running SunOS 5.8 Mailman's home dir is located in a directory which is indeed nfs exported to several machines, however none of them use this mailman dir... The quota for user mailman is no where near being filled, and the slice it resides on has plenty of free room.
What confuses me further is that dumpdb appears to to get all the info for the list. I was hoping not to need to ask, but should I need to (oh and I feel the pain already - 626 lists is going to hurt), what are recommendations for rebuilding these lists? There are backups, but I'm not sure how much that is going to help - I work at an academic institution, where activity from mailman pretty much ceases during the summer, so I'm not even sure when this broke. What magic can I concoct from the existing mailman utils and information from dumpdb? I've also read that there are differences between mm 2.0 (run on this machine) and 2.06, which I may be interested in upgrading to if I need go there.
