Hi Stephen - thanks for replying!
In your experience, has this stopped Mailman from processing incoming
messages? After soem further investigation, I've seen these same errors
take place, yet Mailman continues processing messages. This makes me
wonder if what ever is affecting qrunner(s) isn't something else...
Thanks,
- Ivan.
