NewsRunner processes the 'news' queue and is responsible for delivery from Mailman to the news group. There is a cron called gate_news which is normally configured to run every 5 minutes which gets the newsgroup postings and posts them to Mailman. It seems that is not running. Do other cron jobs run, e.g. the daily reminder of moderator requests waiting, periodic digests, monthly password reminders, reminding and ultimately deleting bouncing members? If the other jobs are running, perhaps Mailman's crontab was edited and the gate_news job removed. If the other jobs are not running, perhaps Mailman's crontab was deleted or crond is not running. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
