Not really.

The message is being received, processed and delivered. I am guessing that at least one of the recipients of the message loops back to Mailman because one of the list members is a list address or something is not properly set up with postfix-to-mailman.py. This message is then discarded by Mailman because of the X-BeenThere: header You need to look at Postfix's log (/var/log/maillog) to see what was done with the messages to those 3 recipients. Also, not to pick on you specifically because you certainly aren't unique in this, but I wonder why people choose to follow 3rd party installation instructions about which we know nothing, but come here for help when they have problems. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
