Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't believe it applies in our case. There are several hundred subscribers on each list, with over 200 different mail domains (hence many different servers). A message from a newly added subscriber is accepted, logged in the archive, and distributed to all the members of the mailing list. A message from a existing subscriber is accepted, logged in the archive, confirming that it was seen and processed (at some level) by Mailman. The message *is* distributed to the newly added members of the mailing list. But it is not distributed to any of the existing members. I do not have direct access to the list server system; I am working through our ISP's support service. Any suggestions for what I can tell them to look for, in Mailman log files or queues or other places, to see why Mailman does not redistribute a message: - from an existing subscriber - to any existing subscriber but (as far as we can tell) is working correctly in all other permutations? Thanks.
