A high level overview is in comments in Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py. This does not cover the detail of the post from receipt to delivery. Basically, this consists of the IncomingRunner passing the message through the pipeline of Mailman/Handlers/* modules defined by GLOBAL_PIPELINE in Defaults.py/mm_cfg.py. The qfiles/* directories are the queues for the various runners. the files therein each contain a message and various processing information about the message. The contents is best viewed with bin/show_qfiles although if there is a problem with the queue entry that causes a processing error, bin/show_qfiles will probably get the same error. In this case, bin/dumpdb might be helpful. As far as I know, there is no documentation of log entries other thatn looking at the code that writes them. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
