Before committing suicide :-), I felt that life was wonderful enough to ask the question to all of you and then, if no solution, I guess suicide will have to be my answer :-)
I have installed mailman (in a Sparc Ultra-5 running Solaris 8) by now 4 times. It works to perfection... for the first message. It does the first message... MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Your new mailing list: mailman From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2003 18:55:59 -0500 X-BeenThere: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 List-Id: <mailman.mafalda.math.indiana.edu> X-List-Administrivia: yes The mailing list `mailman' has just been created for you. . . blah blah and thereafter, it does anything it pleases EXCEPT... sending any messages at all. Yes, I subscribed myself as a member. I checked the permissions. I looked into the qrunner log, saw that it had caught a SIGTERM, and re-started it. So far, this is that log: Mar 10 18:56:51 2003 (9499) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 9500, sig: None, sts: 15, class: ArchRunner, slice: 1/1) Mar 10 18:56:51 2003 (9499) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 9502, sig: None, sts: 15, class: CommandRunner, slice: 1/1) Mar 10 18:56:51 2003 (9499) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 9501, sig: None, sts: 15, class: BounceRunner, slice: 1/1) Mar 10 18:56:51 2003 (9499) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 9504, sig: None, sts: 15, class: NewsRunner, slice: 1/1) Mar 10 18:56:51 2003 (9499) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 9506, sig: None, sts: 15, class: VirginRunner, slice: 1/1) Mar 10 18:56:51 2003 (9499) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 9505, sig: None, sts: 15, class: OutgoingRunner, slice: 1/1) Mar 10 19:22:50 2003 (9611) BounceRunner qrunner started.

I checked the syslog, and this is what it says, for example: Mar 10 14:34:11 mafalda sendmail[3464]: [ID 801593 mail.info] OAA03464: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=664, class=0, pri=30664, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP, relay=inca.math.indiana.edu [129.79.147.77] Mar 10 14:34:12 mafalda sendmail[3465]: [ID 801593 mail.info] OAA03464: to="|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post argentina-feca", delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=prog, stat=Sent which I interpret it to mean that the message was accepted and, theoretically, sent. Indeed, it was sent to the queue. Then, silence. It's like a "black hole". Anyone can lend me a hand? I don't know where else to look or what to do---I am at a loss. Many thanks.
