It is a count of the number of addresses (recipients) that were refused by the SMTP server. See the definition of SMTP_LOG_REFUSED in Defaults.py/mm_cfg.py, the code in SMTPDirect.py and the Python smtplib module documentation at http://www.python.org/doc/2.1.3/lib/module-smtplib.html > >(2) Is there any way to tell what part of a mailing went and what part >didn't if the post occurs in archives, but never is "posted" --ie never >finishes sending...??? The above message is instead of the successful post message. It means in this case that the whole mailing went but 3 recipients were refused. If you haven't changed SMTP_LOG_EACH_FAILURE in mm_cfg.py, the 3 failures should be logged in Mailman's smtp-failure log. If there is no entry at all in the post log, I don't know what's going on. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
