Prior to Mailman 2.1.9, the entry would be removed from the 'out' queue at the start of delivery to the MTA. For a large list, there could be some time before delivery to the MTA is complete. Beginning with 2.1.9, there will be a .bak file in the 'out' queue while delivery to the MTA is in process. You can look in Mailman's 'smtp' log for the "<message-id> smtp for nnn recips, completed in tt.ttt seconds" message. When that message is logged, Mailman's delivery to the MTA is complete. Prior to the logging of that message, there's no way to know how close to done Mailman is. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
